More importantly, as the health insurance industry has changed, he has adapted for his patients to ensure that the procedures he does are covered. He does that by writing excellent reports explaining the need of the Vascular work that he performs. Insurance companies would love not to pay if they perceive that the Vascular work was cosmetic in nature. In short, Dr. Gaede has been a great advocate for my health care, resolving issues in both of my legs.

I had thorough testing with results explained by knowledgeable and kind PAs. I had bilateral endovenous ablation for treatment of varicose veins which was performed by Dr. Srivatsa efficiently, skillfully and almost painless; a mild bit of stinging but easily tolerated. This certainly beats having surgical removal of varicose veins. I highly recommend Heart, Artery and Vein.

I honestly was so scared when I went in to get my vericose veins closed, but the doctor and staff were super supportive and nonjudgemental with me being so anxious. They have a fan, cold damp cloths, stress ball and they will continue any conversation you have with them during the procedure to keep you distracted. Doctor is very attentive to if you need more numbing on your leg. They treat veins not only extremely well but quickly! My legs don't hurt anymore and I don't have those awful looking dark purple spider veins on my legs anymore! I'm super happy I was recommended this place and my mom is actually going to go in to get her legs treated!

Dr. Sanjay Srivatsa is very kind. When I first met him, he made eye contact with me immediately,…read moreand smiled at me, shook my hand and introduced himself, which did a lot for my stress of having to go to a specialist like him. He speaks fast and there's a lot of medical terminology in there, but he does explain everything in detail that he finds in his exams - the treatment and/or procedures he thinks should be done, what the experience of that procedure would feel like, and aftercare if necessary. These are the best qualities in my opinion of him as a doctor, and I like him, and that's saying something because I don't like most of the doctors I see. That said, here are some negative opinions: Him speaking so fast does make it difficult to process what he's saying, and then when you add the medical terminology he's using, it often becomes difficult to understand and remember. But I will say, he answers questions if I interrupt him because I don't understand something, and will try and rephrase it in a way that it's easier for me to understand That's huge to me! Most doctors just get irritated at you if you interrupt them to ask a question, and often they just repeat the same thing they just said, which is no help at all. 2) I think he takes on too many patients, and I do feel a bit rushed when I'm with him. 3) Every time I go to his office for tests, such as ultrasounds, I've had to wait a month between appointments before I get the results of the tests. When you're in pain and seeing a doctor for tests, you don't want to have to wait a month to find out what's wrong with you, and that's very stressful. I also don't want to have to drive an hour and all the way to and from Fresno from Hanford, just for him to speak to me for 10 minutes or less and explain the tests to me. I understand a one-on-one experience with the doctor is a good thing, but not in these circumstances, and I didn't like that at all. I think if the results are nothing to worry about, someone in his office should be able to call me and tell me that, and not make me go through the time, expense, and physical discomfort of that drive. I have an appointment like that coming up and I just called and spoke to his receptionist and asked her if she would talk to me and be compassionate enough to not have me do that and let me have a phone visit. I'll let you know what happens.

A Doctor at California Imaging, Dr. Savadera (hope I spelled it right) was supposed to do a scan for a back problem they thought was causing this problem. instead, he found my Aorta was blocked and I had very little blood getting to my legs.

The surgery also helped a few other major problems I was having. BLOOD FLOW IS VERY IMPORTANT! -- At my yearly follow-up visits, the staff and everyone are always very friendly and knowledgeable.
