Do you have peripheral arterial disease?
Symmetry Vascular Center, located in Stuart, Florida, specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of lower extremity peripheral arterial disease (PAD). This condition is primarily caused by atherosclerosis, often associated with smoking and genetic factors, resulting in the buildup of atherosclerotic plaque in the arteries.
