    Dr. Matthew Amans is a neurointerventional radiologist, a specialist in less invasive procedures to diagnose and treat disorders involving blood vessels of the brain and spine, such as stroke. He cares for both adults and children. He focuses particularly on treating dural arteriovenous fistulas (abnormal vein-artery connections in the brain's protective membrane), acute strokes, cerebral aneurysms and idiopathic intracranial hypertension (high pressure inside the skull for unknown reasons). His expertise includes using directed chemotherapy for cerebral tumors, including pediatric retinoblastoma. Amans' interest in pulsatile tinnitus – in which people perceive a rhythmic noise in their ears that has no outside source – led him to found the UCSF Pulsatile Tinnitus Clinic. He serves as co-director of the clinic, a team of doctors and researchers that has achieved great success in identifying and curing the underlying causes of pulsatile tinnitus. Patients from around the world come to the clinic for diagnosis and treatment, particularly if they have a complex dural arteriovenous fistula or idiopathic intracranial hypertension that requires a venous sinus stent (a tiny tube placed to widen the vein). Amans also leads a UCSF laboratory dedicated to pulsatile tinnitus and funded by the National Institutes of Health. His research team has developed new noninvasive methods of evaluating blood flow abnormalities in the brain's vessels, including a way to visualize flow in the cerebral veins. These pioneering efforts illuminate how flow patterns can generate vascular diseases and the perception of sound experienced in pulsatile tinnitus. In addition to diagnostic techniques, the lab has developed novel therapies for vascular diseases, using technologies that disrupt flow. Amans earned his medical degree at Wayne State University School of Medicine. He completed a residency in radiology at Weill Cornell Medical College, followed by fellowships in neuroradiology and neurointerventional radiology at UCSF. Amans is a senior member of the Society of Neurointerventional Surgery and a senior member of the American Society of Neuroradiology. He has leadership roles in numerous professional organizations, including the American Society of Neuroradiology, American College of Radiology, International Society of Magnetic Resonance in Medicine and American Heart Association. He is also a reviewer for various medical journals serving the fields of radiology, neurosurgery and neurology. A music lover, Amans plays the guitar professionally and writes songs in his free time. Dr. Amans is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in Carotid Artery Surgery. He is also highly rated in 10 other conditions, according to our data. His clinical expertise encompasses Arteriovenous Malformation, Pseudotumor Cerebri Syndrome, Cerebral Arteriovenous Malformation, Endovascular Embolization, and Stent Placement.

    When should I see a Carotid Artery Surgery doctor near Burlingame, CA?

    There are various reasons why you may want to see a specialist, such as: 

    • Your primary care provider recommends it. 
    • Your condition requires expert knowledge and specialized care. 
    • Your symptoms persist or worsen despite treatment. 
    • You need specialized testing or procedures. 
    • You want a second opinion.  

    What should I consider when choosing a Carotid Artery Surgery doctor near Burlingame, CA?

    It’s important to see a provider with expertise in your specific condition. Each provider profile in MediFind’s doctor database includes information on which conditions they treat, years of experience, research contributions, languages spoken, insurance plans accepted, and more.  

    How does MediFind rank Carotid Artery Surgery doctors near Burlingame, CA?

    MediFind’s rankings are based on a variety of data sources, such as the number of articles a doctor has published in medical journals, participation in clinical trials and industry conferences, as well as the number of patients that provider sees for a given condition. Note that MediFind’s provider database is not based on user reviews, and providers do not pay to be included in the database. 

    What types of insurance are accepted by Carotid Artery Surgery doctors near Burlingame, CA?

    Most profiles in MediFind’s doctor database include a list of insurance plans accepted by that provider. However, it’s a good idea to contact the provider’s office to make sure they still accept your insurance, then doublecheck by contacting your insurance plan to confirm they’re in network. 

    How can I book an appointment online with a Carotid Artery Surgery doctor near Burlingame, CA?

    MediFind offers direct scheduling for certain providers using the “Request Appointment” button on that provider’s profile. If the schedule option is not available for a provider, tap the red “Show Phone Number” button on their profile to get their contact information. If you prefer to find providers who offer online scheduling, select “Schedules online” under the “Availability” category of the filter feature on the left side of the Carotid Artery Surgery doctor search results page. 

    Why is it important to get a second opinion from a different Carotid Artery Surgery doctor?

    Second opinions are an opportunity to confirm a diagnosis and its root cause, learn about alternative treatment options, or simply gain peace of mind. Many people, especially those with serious diagnoses, get second opinions so they can understand all their options and make informed decisions, so don’t hesitate to get one if you have any doubts or need more information or clarification regarding your care. Note that some insurance plans require second opinions, while others don’t cover second opinions, so be sure to confirm with your insurance provider first.   

    How can I prepare for my appointment with a Carotid Artery Surgery doctor near Burlingame, CA?

    Prepare for your appointment by gathering the following items: 

    • Copies of medical records (dating back at least one year) 
    • Your medical history, including illnesses, medical conditions, surgeries, and other doctors you see 
    • Family history of disease 
    • List of current prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal remedies or supplements including names and doses 
    • Allergies to medications, food, latex, insects, etc.  
    • List of questions and concerns 
    • Your insurance card 

    You might also contact the provider’s office to see if they offer transportation or childcare services or if you’re allowed to bring a loved one for support or to take notes during your visit. 

    What questions should I ask my Carotid Artery Surgery doctor?

    Here are some sample questions: 

    • Can you explain in simple terms what this condition is and how it’s treated? 
    • What symptoms or side effects should I watch for? 
    • What tests will be involved, and when can I expect results? 
    • Are there other specialists I need to see? 
    • What’s the best way to reach you if I have follow-up questions? 

    How can I learn about the latest clinical trials and research advances my Carotid Artery Surgery doctor may know about?

    MediFind’s Clinical Trials tool asks you a series of questions to help you narrow down your search by health condition, age, gender, location, how far you’re willing to travel, and more. Each question you answer filters down the number of trials until you find the ones that are most relevant to you. 

    MediFind’s Latest Advances tool features summaries of recent articles published in medical journals. We use cutting-edge technology to scour medical publication databases for the latest research advancements on any given condition, then we simplify this information in a way that’s useful and easy to understand. 

    Can I filter my search to show male or female Carotid Artery Surgery doctors near Burlingame, CA?

    Look for the filter feature on the left side of the Carotid Artery Surgery doctor search results page. Select “Female” or “Male” under the “Gender” category to search for female or male providers exclusively. If the “Any” option is selected, it will pull results for both male and female providers. 

    Can I filter my search to find a Carotid Artery Surgery doctor that offers video calls?

    Look for the filter feature on the left-side of the Carotid Artery Surgery doctor search results page. Select “Offers telehealth visits” under the Availability category to search for providers who offer virtual appointments (video calls).
