Vascular Surgery Hospital in Ahmedabad – When Blood Flow Is the Problem, EPIC Is the Answer

Most people think about the heart when they think about vascular disease. But the truth is, the arteries and veins that carry blood throughout your body can develop problems anywhere — in your legs, your abdomen, your neck, your kidneys. 

EPIC Multispecialty Hospital is a dedicated vascular surgery hospital in Ahmedabad with the expertise and infrastructure to manage the full range of vascular conditions — from peripheral artery disease causing leg pain on a morning walk, to aortic aneurysms that can rupture without warning. 

Vascular disease in Gujarat is under-diagnosed and under-treated. Our team is here to change that — one patient at a time. 

Vascular Conditions Treated at EPIC Hospital, Ahmedabad 

• Peripheral artery disease: Narrowing of the arteries in the legs causes cramping, pain, and in advanced cases, non-healing wounds or tissue loss. We treat this with angioplasty, stenting, or surgical bypass depending on severity and anatomy. 

• Aortic aneurysm: The aorta — the body’s main artery — can balloon dangerously. Without intervention, large aneurysms can rupture with catastrophic results. EPIC offers both open surgical repair and endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) for suitable patients. 

• Carotid artery disease: Narrowing of the carotid arteries in the neck is a leading cause of stroke. Carotid endarterectomy or carotid stenting can significantly reduce that risk when performed by an experienced team. 

• Deep vein thrombosis: Blood clots in the deep veins of the leg are more common than people realise — and more dangerous than they’re often told. Early treatment prevents pulmonary embolism and long-term vein damage. 

• Diabetic vascular disease and limb salvage: Gujarat has a high burden of diabetes, and diabetic vascular disease remains one of the leading causes of amputation in India. Our dedicated limb salvage programme combines vascular surgery, wound care, and endocrinology to save limbs that other centres have given up on. 

Why Vascular Disease Gets Missed – and What to Watch For 

Vascular disease is quiet until it isn’t. A patient with significant peripheral artery disease will often assume that the calf pain during a walk is just age, or fitness, or something muscular. A patient with a growing aortic aneurysm typically has no symptoms at all until the moment of rupture — which is a life-threatening emergency. 

The warning signs worth paying attention to: leg pain that comes on reliably during walking and disappears with rest — that’s classic claudication, not a muscle problem. Cold or discoloured feet. A pulsating sensation in the abdomen. Non-healing sores or small wounds on the foot or ankle, particularly in patients with diabetes or hypertension. These warrant a proper vascular assessment. 

At EPIC Hospital in Ahmedabad, we see a significant number of patients who’ve been managed for years by orthopaedic or general physicians for what turns out to be vascular in origin. If something isn’t responding to the treatment you’re receiving, it may be worth getting a vascular surgeon’s opinion. 

Vascular Surgery – What Patients Ask Us 

What is the difference between vascular surgery and cardiac surgery?

Cardiac surgery focuses on the heart itself. Vascular surgery addresses all the blood vessels outside the heart — the arteries and veins in the legs, abdomen, neck, chest, and arms. Many patients need both specialists — which is why having them under one roof at EPIC Hospital in Ahmedabad matters. 

Is vascular surgery always open surgery?

No — and increasingly, many vascular procedures are done endovascularly, using catheters and stents rather than large incisions. This means shorter recovery and lower risk for suitable patients. Whether open or endovascular is appropriate depends on your anatomy and the condition being treated. 

Does EPIC Hospital handle vascular emergencies in Ahmedabad?

Yes. Ruptured aneurysms, acute limb ischaemia, major vascular trauma — our team is available around the clock for vascular emergencies. These situations require immediate surgical response, and we have that capability. 

I have diabetes and a non-healing foot wound. Should I see a vascular surgeon?

Yes — and ideally sooner rather than later. Diabetic foot complications often have a significant vascular component that goes unaddressed. Our limb salvage programme in Ahmedabad is specifically designed for these situations and has helped patients avoid amputation. 

Don’t Wait Until a Vascular Emergency Forces the Decision

Vascular conditions are most treatable before they become critical. At EPIC Multispecialty Hospital — one of Ahmedabad’s most experienced vascular surgery hospitals — our team can assess, plan, and act before a manageable problem becomes a crisis.
