Clinical Practice

Stefan offers a contemporary comprehensive vascular service treating all aspects of vascular disease (arterial and venous), using up to date evidence based medicine, state of the art procedures and techniques as well as his extensive personal experience. Utilising open, minimally invasive endovascular and conservative options, Stefan treats all aspects of peripheral arterial disease, varicose vein disorders , aneurysmal disease, carotid artery disease, renal access and intravenous access, ulcer and diabetic foot management. He has a particular focus in non-invasive vascular imaging, with Perth VascuScan providing fully integrated vascular ultrasound within his practice.

 

Stefan’s ethos has always been to put himself in his patient’s shoes, providing patients a straight forward, clear and reassuring experience. Through the use of conservative medical therapies, minimally invasive endovascular techniques and open surgery, Stefan is able to tailor treatment for the very best outcome.
