Interventional Radiology at ProHEALTH Care
My name is Dr. Oren T. Herman.
I'm a board certified Interventional and Diagnostic Radiologist.
I mainly specialize in any interventional procedure that can be done in an outpatient setting.
A lot of people don't really understand what interventional radiologists do.
And really an interventional radiologist is somebody who does minimally invasive procedures, really either through a tiny incision or no incision at all.
And we basically do every type of procedure we can do in the body using an image guidance. Usually it could be an X-RAY, it could be an ultrasound, it could be a cat scan, and we're really doing everything inside the body without making any real large incision.
I'm Mike Vitale. I'm an Interventional Radiologist here at ProHealth.
My area of expertise falls under Interventional Oncology.
That's a pretty broad area that describes all the procedures we can do for our cancer patients. So, besides putting in mediports, which patients use for chemotherapy, we do image guided biopsies.
We do procedures in which we're able to physically kill tumors that are in certain organs. In addition to interventional oncology, you know, I'm well versed in treating all forms of interventional radiology including peripheral arterial disease, uterine fibroids.
We deal with a lot of patients that have issues with pelvic pain in male and female that's usually due to varicose veins in the pelvis. Men can have varicose seals, which are varicose veins in the scrotum and females could have varicose veins in their pelvis causing pelvic congestion syndrome and that's usually from the veins that are draining the ovaries.
Another important area of service that we offer here is peripheral vascular disease. And that means that there are arteries that give blood flow to the foot or to the lower extremities that is diseased.
And it can give a patient a range of symptoms from claudication, which means they have pain in their calf when they're walking to what's called gangrene and their foot is basically dead and needs blood supply in order for it to heal or for in order for the patient to maybe not get an amputation.
Our equipment includes a brand new state of the art GE flat panel C arms with a 55 inch monitors. This really allows us to see better image quality with very low dose radiation to us and the patients. For some of these patients, the hospital, they won't even do these procedures in house. You know, you may wait for OR time there. You may wait for days, they may discharge you.
And for example, if you have a clotted access, a hospital may only put a catheter in and send the patient home and then we have to fix them here in the office. For us, we accept patients same day appointments.
A phone call comes in from dialysis center or from the kidney doctor from the nephrologists and says, there's a problem with the access.
And we attempt to accommodate the patient almost if not the same day, the next day. We have a motto here at ProHealth Interventional Services that says we treat patients like family.
I would actually like to say that we treat patients even better than family, and we want patients to come out of their ProHealth experience and go on and live the healthiest life that they can live.
Many of our cardiology offices are recognized as patient-centered medical homes, a sign of high-quality care.
