At Vegas Vascular Specialists, we are dedicated to delivering expert, compassionate care for vascular and venous conditions. Our founder, Dr. Eddy Luh, has served the Las Vegas community for over 20 years, leading Nevada’s largest team of board-certified, fellowship-trained vascular surgeons who specialize exclusively in vascular health.
One principle that guides our practice stems from advice shared with Dr. Luh by a mentor early in his career: “Vascular surgery is easy to do, but the hardest thing is knowing when to operate and when not to.” This wisdom shapes every decision we make, ensuring that our patients receive thoughtful, personalized care throughout their health journey.
Why Choose a Vascular Surgeon?
When you’re referred to a vascular surgeon, you’re getting more than just a specialist – you’re getting a partner in your long-term health. Here’s what makes our approach different:
- We’re trained to perform all types of vascular procedures – from minimally invasive to open surgical approaches, including hybrid techniques
- We manage and treat conditions involving any artery or vein, except those in the heart and brain
- We build long-term relationships with our patients
- We focus exclusively on vascular disease
Vascular disease encompasses a wide range of conditions affecting arteries, veins, and the lymphatic system, including arterial blockages, aneurysms, varicose veins, deep vein thrombosis, as well as other circulatory and vascular health issues.
Think of it this way: if your car had an electrical issue, you’d trust an electrical specialist over a general mechanic. The same applies to your vascular health—specialized expertise leads to better outcomes.
The majority of our patients are referred to our office from doctors who trust us to provide you with the best care that’s right for your situation.

Advanced Training Sets Vascular Surgeons Apart
Our vascular surgeons complete rigorous specialized training through one of two pathways: either a five-year general surgery residency followed by a two-year vascular surgery fellowship, or a five-year integrated vascular surgery residency.
This comprehensive training enables our team to:
- Provide the full range of vascular treatments (minimal, open or hybrid)
- Treat conditions throughout the vascular system
- Choose the best approach for each patient
- Handle urgent cases quickly
- Manage complex situations effectively
Better Outcomes Through Specialized Care
Our specialized training and focus on vascular disease leads to better outcomes for you. While other providers may have experience with individual vascular procedures, they often lack the comprehensive expertise to manage complex vascular conditions over time.
Consider aneurysm treatment. A provider who only performs minimally invasive procedures might recommend stenting, even when open surgery would provide better long-term results. Another might only offer open surgery when a less invasive approach would be safer. As vascular surgeons, we evaluate each case objectively and choose the best approach based on:
- Your specific anatomy
- The location and severity of the condition
- Your overall health and risk factors
- Long-term durability needs
- Recovery considerations
Our team’s specialized expertise particularly matters for complex cases requiring hybrid approaches, emergency situations needing quick decisions, and high-risk patients. Having multiple board-certified vascular surgeons on our team, means you get expert care when you need it, without delay.
Why Early Specialist Care is Critical
When you’re referred for vascular care, seeing a specialized vascular surgeon promptly can make a crucial difference in your outcome. Many vascular conditions progress rapidly, and delays in getting the right treatment can lead to serious complications.
When patients see non-vascular specialists first, they may experience:
- Delayed diagnosis while symptoms worsen
- Limited treatment options
- Focus on symptoms rather than underlying causes
- Missed opportunities for prevention
For example, cardiovascular specialists might default to stenting because that’s their primary training, while vein clinics typically focus only on superficial procedures. Some surgeons only perform open surgery, missing opportunities for less invasive options, while others only offer minimally invasive procedures, even when open surgery would provide better long-term results.
At Vegas Vascular Specialists, our team evaluates your complete vascular system and offers all treatment options – from conservative management to minimally invasive procedures to open surgery.
Our comprehensive team approach ensures you receive the most appropriate care for your specific situation right from the start.
