 More info below. Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) affects
nearly 12 million people in the United States. This disease
exponentially increases a patient’s risk of heart attack and/or
stroke. Yet, 40% of these patients show no apparent signs of this
disease. Early detection depends upon a physician’s ability to
identify symptoms and risk factors. PAD is a serious, yet
treatable, disease. Proper treatment may slow down and even halt
progression of the disease, while also reducing the risk of
patients developing other devastating health complications, such as
heart attack and stroke. If untreated, PAD may lead to a dramatic
decline in quality of life, limb amputation, or even death. 
If you are a listener in the Houston area, here’s a great
opportunity for Free screenings also!  Vascular Access Center
(VAC) of Houston will be providing free health screenings and
consultations throughout June, in celebration of National Men’s
Health Month.
