Dr. Heather Waldrop
Overview
Vascular surgery provides me the opportunity to work with a diverse patient population while treating a variety of disease processes. My first priority is always patient care. I strive to treat each patient with the same care I would want my family to receive. I enjoy the opportunity to develop long-term relationships with patients and establish continuity of care. In vascular surgery, there are multiple treatment options, including endovascular techniques, medical management, and open surgical techniques. Additionally, there is a wide range of disease processes, including deep venous thrombosis, peripheral arterial disease, abdominal aortic aneurysms, and carotid artery disease. I take a team approach with patients and their families to align treatment options with patients’ expectations in order to achieve the best possible outcomes. While away from the hospital, I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling, and enjoying the wide range of outdoor activities that North Carolina has to offer.
