Section of Vascular Surgery
We set the standard for our discipline—improving the lives of patients, making discoveries and training the next generation of leaders.
Through our partnerships with cardiovascular specialists across disciplines and our technologically advanced facilities, the U-M Medical School Section of Vascular Surgery is uniquely equipped to treat difficult and complex cases, and to translate new treatments and approaches from the lab to the bedside.
The Michigan Promise aims to empower faculty members and residents in the Department of Surgery to achieve professional success. We support initiatives connected to environment, recruitment, leadership, achievement, innovation and outreach.
