BOARD-CERTIFIED INTERVENTIONAL RADIOLOGY IN ATLANTA

Skip the surgery. Not the treatment.

Fibroids, enlarged prostate, PAD, internal hemorrhoids, knee pain and vein disease, all treated with 
outpatient embolization by one interventional radiology team across Atlanta, Tucker and Stockbridge.
Georgia Endovascular is the parent practice behind four specialty centers across metro Atlanta.
CONDITIONS WE TREAT

Nine conditions. One kind of doctor.

Interventional radiologists treat from inside the blood vessels. A catheter goes in through a pinhole in the wrist or groin, live imaging guides it to the spot causing your symptoms, and embolization treats the problem at its source. No large incision. No general anesthesia. Most people are back to normal activity within days.

Enlarged Prostate (BPH)

Prostate artery embolization (PAE) shrinks an enlarged prostate by cutting off the blood supply feeding it, so nighttime bathroom trips and weak flow settle down. No cutting, and sexual function is preserved.

Frozen Shoulder

Adhesive capsulitis locks up the shoulder and makes reaching behind you nearly impossible. Shoulder embolization quiets the abnormal vessels feeding chronic inflammation, easing pain and restoring range of motion.

Golfer's & Tennis Elbow

When rest, bracing and cortisone haven't fixed lateral or medial epicondylitis, embolization targets the tiny vessels driving the pain so the tendon can finally settle down. You use the arm again the next day.

Hemorrhoids

Hemorrhoid artery embolization stops the bleeding and pressure at the source instead of removing tissue. There's no cutting, no banding, and none of the recovery people dread most about hemorrhoid surgery.

Knee Osteoarthritis

Genicular artery embolization (GAE) reduces the inflammation behind stubborn knee pain. It's built for people who aren't ready for a knee replacement, or who aren't candidates for one at all.

Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD)

Plaque narrows the arteries in your legs until walking a single block starts to hurt. Angioplasty, stenting and atherectomy reopen the vessel, ease the cramping, help wounds heal and lower amputation risk.

Plantar Fasciitis & Heel Pain

Heel pain that hasn't responded to orthotics, stretching or steroid injections usually has an inflammatory blood supply behind it. Plantar fascia embolization treats that supply in one outpatient visit.

Uterine Fibroids

Uterine fibroid embolization (UFE) shrinks fibroids by blocking the arteries feeding them, which cuts heavy bleeding, cramping and bloating. Your uterus stays exactly where it is.

Varicose Veins & Vein Disease

Heavy, aching, swollen legs and visible ropey veins almost always trace back to venous insufficiency. Ablation, sclerotherapy and phlebectomy close the failing veins and reroute the flow to healthy ones.

HOW IT WORKS

What actually happens during an image-guided procedure

Most people have never heard of interventional radiology before their doctor mentions it. Here's the short version of how treatment works: three steps, one visit, and you're usually home by afternoon.

Same-day, outpatient

We use local anesthetic and light sedation instead of general anesthesia. You'll be comfortable and drowsy, but there's no breathing tube and no groggy afternoon spent waking up.

One small nick, no incision.

Your physician enters through a pinhole in the wrist or groin, about the width of a pen tip. Live X-ray guides a thin catheter to the exact vessel behind your symptoms.

Treated at the source, then home.

Once the catheter is in position, tiny particles or targeted heat close off the blood supply feeding the problem. You rest for a couple of hours, then someone drives you home.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Questions people ask before they book an appointment

These are the ones we hear most. If yours isn't here, call the office nearest you and ask.

What conditions does Georgia Endovascular treat?

Georgia Endovascular treats uterine fibroids, enlarged prostate (BPH), peripheral artery disease, hemorrhoids, vein disease, knee osteoarthritis, frozen shoulder, tennis and golfer's elbow, and plantar fasciitis. All nine share one thing: a blood supply that can be treated from the inside with embolization, rather than cut out.

What is interventional radiology?

An interventional radiologist is a physician who completed a diagnostic radiology residency plus fellowship training in image-guided procedures. They read the scans and perform the treatment, navigating inside your blood vessels with a catheter using live X-ray or ultrasound. It's a surgical specialty without the surgery.

Am I a candidate for embolization?

Most adults with symptoms from these conditions are candidates, including people who have been told surgery is their only option. Candidacy depends on your imaging, symptom severity and medical history, and is confirmed at a consultation in our offices. 

How long is recovery after an embolization procedure?

Most patients go home the same day and return to light activity within two to three days. Fibroid and prostate embolization patients usually take about a week off work. Vein patients typically walk out and resume normal activity that afternoon.

Does insurance cover these procedures?

Medicare and most commercial plans cover uterine fibroid embolization, prostate artery embolization, PAD treatment and medically necessary vein care when symptoms are documented. Our team verifies your benefits before scheduling and tells you what you'll owe up front.

How much do these procedures cost?

Cost depends on the procedure, your plan and where you are in your deductible year. Georgia Endovascular verifies your benefits and gives you the number before anything is scheduled.

Do I need a referral to be seen?

No. You can book a consultation with Georgia Endovascular directly, without a referral from another physician. If you'd like, we'll send our notes back to your primary care doctor, OB-GYN or urologist.

Where is Georgia Endovascular located?

Georgia Endovascular has three clinics across metro Atlanta, in Atlanta, Tucker and Stockbridge. The same physicians and the same procedures at all three, rated 4.8 stars across 409 patient reviews.
