At the Duke Clinic Vascular Surgery - Sweetwater, we provide compassionate, patient centered, and comprehensive care for conditions that affect your arteries and veins. Our vascular surgeons and advanced practice providers offer expert evaluation, advanced diagnostic testing, and individualized treatment plans, including minimally invasive and traditional surgical options.
