VASCULAR & INTERVENTIONAL RADIOLOGY ASSOCIATES are...
a group of sub-specialty trained, board-certified physicians who provide less invasive solutions to a patient’s health issues.
- Using image-guided support, VIRA’s experienced vascular and interventional radiologists intervene with precision, without large incisions so most patients go home the same day.
- Though we use the most advanced treatment options, including the new Laser Therapy for Varicose Veins to reduce pain and bruising, VIRA physicians practice medicine the old fashioned way. At VIRA you are seen by a physician who visits with you, examines and probes your health issue and consults with each patient before the procedure.

Who We Are
Interventional Radiologists (IR) are uniquely suited to treat a variety of medical conditions and illnesses across all specialties.
- By combining their clinical knowledge with in-depth training and imaging, they use x-rays, CT, MRI, and ultrasound to safely and precisely guide catheters and needles into arteries, veins, and organs to provide treatment.
- Such minimally invasive treatments provide nonsurgical alternatives to treat many disorders, resulting in less pain and faster recuperation.
Interventional Radiologists have been instrumental in developing and refining many techniques used in modern medicine. They were the innovators in arterial angioplasty and stent placement within arteries.
As imaging technology and micro-access therapies evolve, the Interventional Radiologists at VIRA continue to add the latest precise, proven and effective treatments for multiple health issues.
