Vascular Surgery
Diagnosis and surgical treatment of diseases affecting arteries, veins, and the lymphatic system throughout the body
Vascular Surgery is the specialty focused on diagnosis and surgical treatment of diseases affecting arteries, veins, and the lymphatic system throughout the body. OpenDoc keeps the common visit types visible so patients can compare the care path before they book. Transparent pricing on this page currently ranges from $75 to $6,000 across 14 common visit types. Vascular Surgeons specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of blood vessel disorders outside the heart and brain — from life-threatening aortic aneurysms to cosmetically bothersome varicose veins. OpenDoc providers offer vascular evaluations starting at $250 with in-office vascular ultrasound for $150 to $400, compared to $800-$1,500 at hospital vascular labs. Peripheral arterial disease alone affects over 8.5 million Americans, and early detection through cash-pay screening can prevent costly emergency interventions.

Cash-pay context
Why pricing transparency matters here
Many vein treatments are classified as cosmetic by insurance and denied coverage, making cash pay the default for varicose vein procedures. For arterial conditions, cash-pay vascular ultrasound in a surgeon's office costs 60-75% less than hospital vascular labs, with the advantage of immediate same-visit treatment planning.

Why subspecialty matters
Why OpenDoc separates these care paths instead of collapsing them
Focused training matters
Specialties often branch into narrower care paths. Seeing them clearly helps patients choose providers with training that actually matches the problem.
Prices match the care path
A sports medicine visit, a spine evaluation, and a tumor consult are not the same visit. OpenDoc keeps pricing attached to the path, not just the umbrella specialty.
Less guesswork before booking
Patients should understand the likely route before they see provider cards. That lowers false starts and makes the next step into provider search feel clearer.
Better provider fit
This page keeps specialty, subspecialty, common visit types, and price context aligned so users can move into provider selection with more confidence.
