Thank you to our patients, team, and community for making 2022 a wonderful year. We are forever grateful for you!

Sitting for extended periods during travel can cause blood to pool in the leg veins, leading to potentially dangerous blood clots. During holiday travel, stand up or walk occasionally, exercise calf muscles, and stretch your legs.
➡️ If traveling by car, include breaks to stretch and walk
➡️ If traveling by plane or train, select an aisle seat if possible and walk around every 2-3 hours
➡️ Raise and lower your heels with your toes on the floor and tighten and release your leg muscles

And if you are at risk for DVT, you can also talk to your physician about wearing compression stockings during travel.

Smoking is detrimental to your vascular health and drastically increases your chances of vascular diseases. Chemicals in ci******es cause plaque to build up and blood to thicken, which can narrow arteries, form clots, and inhibit blood flow.

No matter how long or when you started smoking, quitting now can improve your health immediately and in the long term.
