This certifies specialized training in treating patients with peripheral vascular disease - patients with blockages in the arteries and veins in the legs which might prevent them from walking, in the kidneys which may cause poorly controlled blood pressure and impaired kidney function, and the arteries in the neck which can cause stroke.
