About Vascular Services

The body’s vascular system is made up of a network of blood vessels delivering oxygen and nutrients to our bodies. When one of our arteries is blocked, it creates a backup causing serious problems including Vascular Disease. A blockage can also lead to internal bleeding, stroke, a heart attack or, in some instances in the lower extremities, it can cause the loss of a limb.

Community Hospital of Huntington Park offers vascular procedures to treat conditions that affect the lower extremities such as the arms and legs. Vascular health is important for everyone, but especially for the increasing number of diabetes patients. In the local area, more than 30% of adults are diabetic or prediabetic. The team at Community Hospital of Huntington Park is committed to recognizing the health needs of the community and taking action to address them with high-quality, effective solutions.
