Outpatient Minimally Invasive Vascular Surgery

As a leader in minimally invasive peripheral artery disease treatments, Dr. Lam opened The Limb Salvage Center, a state-of-the-art, nationally accredited, outpatient vascular center in Dallas dedicated to performing peripheral vascular interventions without requiring hospital admission or overnight stay. In 2020, he launched The Vein Center at Lam Vascular & Associates, a state-of-the-art facility in Dallas dedicated entirely to the diagnosis and minimally invasive treatment of venous conditions.

For patients and their families, the convenience of these two outpatient centers that focus on their individual and medical needs, combined with a knowledgeable, friendly and compassionate staff, delivers a truly unique experience in health care.

Dr. Russell Lam is credited with preventing thousands of leg amputations. Many of these interventions have been the result of patients who sought a second opinion after being told their conditions are inoperable or not treatable with medical therapies. A second opinion from a renowned specialist can provide you with peace of mind knowing that you are choosing the ideal treatment option for your specific needs.
