Overview

Philosophy of care | Vascular disease is often a complex, challenging, and lifelong problem, requiring equally intensive evaluation and treatment of the whole patient. When I meet with you, we will discuss your concerns that relate to vascular disease, as well as any other conditions that may play a role in the treatment of your vascular condition. | Why I entered medicine | There wasn’t any one, single thing. It starts when you do well in a couple of classes and somebody says, “You ought to be a doctor.” Early on it was suggested to me that medicine might be a good career choice. I got into my particular brand of medicine because the patients are challenging in terms of secondary problems, and the procedures are complex. That appealed to my desire to be all in and do something challenging. I enjoy working with my hands and want to effect change. I want to make sure people are getting better, and by doing procedures or interventional things like angioplasty and stenting, I have the opportunity to make a direct impact on patients’ lives. | Community involvement | As my kids went through school, I coached youth football and lacrosse, each for about seven years. I’ve always been involved with my children’s sports, and have continued to follow their sports careers through college. | Personal interests | I enjoy running and bicycling. When I was on staff at Lehigh Valley Hospital, I was involved with track cycling at the velodrome (now Valley Preferred Cycling Center), and did century rides. I’ve recently gotten back to biking and am mainly trying to stay in shape. My wife and I play tennis. And we spend a lot of time visiting our kids at different colleges and keeping up with them. Whatever free time is left is consumed by taking care of our house and yard.

Philosophy of care | My job is to save the lives of patients with aortic aneurysms, to prevent strokes in patients with carotid artery disease and to avert amputation in patients with impaired blood flow to their extremities. However, what I treasure in my job is the relationship with patients and their families, developed sometimes over years and sometimes quickly during a challenging time in their lives. I always remember that patients like you who seek out my expertise are people – with jobs, lives, hobbies, families and compelling personal stories. I enjoy hearing those stories and playing a role in caring for those individuals. | Why I entered medicine | Honestly, I wasn't very good at physics. After studying physics and engineering as an undergraduate at Haverford College and as a graduate student at the University of Virginia, I figured out somewhat serendipitously that I was good at surgery and enjoyed caring for patients. Vascular surgery is intellectually engrossing and technically challenging. | Community involvement | My wife Oksana and I support the YMCA, and three generations of Jacksons have attended a YMCA summer camp in Rhode Island. Because Oksana is of Ukrainian heritage, we support a number of humanitarian causes in that country. | Personal interests | My family and I enjoy hiking and camping (Indian Garden Campground at the Grand Canyon is my favorite campsite). My kids play a lot of soccer, and some baseball and softball, so I've become a student of those games. We're pretty dedicated Philadelphia Union fans. Dr. Jackson is rated as an Elite provider by MediFind in the treatment of Peptic Ulcer. His top areas of expertise are Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm, Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA), Carotid Artery Disease, Aneurysm Repair, and Carotid Artery Surgery.
