Vascular Surgery

A vascular surgeon diagnoses diseases of the vascular system, arteries or veins and then does surgical
reconstruction on them.
Some duties are to making sure a patient is is ready for surgery and make sure the patient is fine after
surgery.
You need a bachelors degree, five years of medical school, five years of surgery residency, and two
years of specialized vascular fellowship, and then five years or 250 surgeries to be qualified.
Entry level is right after your fellowship and advanced level is PhD with several years of experience.
Advancement opportunities are manager to owner of your own facility.
Unfortunately there are not very many people interested in this career.
The salary of this job is around $300,000-$400,000
You can get your education from places like UNL, UNMC, and BryanLGH College of Health Sciences

Use of Health Science Course/Standards

I need to know the history of the procedure and why we do it. I also need to

important to research many careers so you know where you fit.
It fits in diagnostic because you diagnose diseases of the vascular system.
