Dr. Leila Mureebe
Overview
I perform all types of vascular surgery from taking care of varicose veins to fixing aneurysms and everything in between. One of the things I love about my field is that I get to treat the whole patient. Once they come see me, they become my patient forever; it’s critical to develop a long-term relationship with them. My job is to not only treat whatever issues they came to see me about, but also to learn about what led to their problems. It’s important to have discussions on their risk factors so they can improve their day-to-day life and reduce the chance of needing additional procedures. When I meet with patients, I think it’s important to present them with all the options available and find out what matches their personal goals. Outside of work, I enjoy sailing, scuba diving and taking my two dogs hiking.

I love being a vascular surgeon because it provides the opportunity to treat disease in all aspects of the body. I specialize in arterial disease, whether that means preventing an abdominal aortic aneurysm from rupturing or performing a bypass to end debilitating leg pain. Vascular surgery is a unique combination of traditional technical challenges and modern technology, which allows for minimally invasive procedures. Most important, vascular surgery allows me to create long-term relationships with my patients. I like to sit down and speak with patients and their families in order to create a family atmosphere where patients feel they can talk to me about anything. At the end of the day, we are all on the same team. Dr. Long is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in Angioplasty.
