Do you have:
Varicose veins
Legs that ache, feel tired, and feel heavy
Swollen legs
Restless legs at night
Darkening of the skin over your shins, calves, and feet?

People with mobility-related disabilities and neuromuscular conditions are at particularly high risk, but Buffalo Vascular Care offers a variety of minimally-invasive procedures to help you maintain your best health possible.

Varicose veins are swollen, twisted veins caused by faulty valves pooling blood in the legs.

For people with physical or neuromuscular disabilities, reduced mobility drastically worsens vein health, requiring proactive management to prevent severe pain, swelling, ulcers, and clots.

Did you know Buffalo Vascular Care offers a variety of minimally-invasive procedures to treat varicose veins?

This Disability Pride Month, be aware and be proactive. Call 716-852-1977 for an appointment to talk about your options or visit buffalovascularcare.com.

Nearly 1 in 7 adults have a mobility disability, the most common disability in the U.S. Among them are wheelchair users. And more than half of wheelchair users experience pressure sores, which can lead to even more serious medical issues quickly.

So this Disability Pride Month, it's important to be aware, take preventative measures, and if a pressure sore develops, don't delay treatment.

Then contact Buffalo Vascular Care if you need care for pressure sores.

Individuals with disabilities face a significantly higher risk of developing chronic wounds, particularly pressure ulcers, due to prolonged immobility, altered sensation, or restricted circulation.

Effective care requires specialized pressure redistribution, meticulous daily skin assessments, and a strong focus on nutrition and moisture control to prevent tissue breakdown.

This Disability Pride Month, take a few moments to make an appointment with a Wound Care Center that understands your needs.

Advanced, compassionate care for complex wounds — right in our office, with the full support of a vascular specialist team. That's Buffalo Vascular Care.

June is Wound Healing Awareness Month, a time to talk with Buffalo Vascular Care about the advanced treatments we have available to help your wounds that aren't healing.

Some wounds need more than standard care. Buffalo Vascular Care offers hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy, which enhances healing by delivering high levels of oxygen directly to damaged tissues. This helps repair tissue, reduce inflammation, and fight infection.

HBO therapy is part of a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach to help you heal faster and more effectively. Many conditions have been shown to benefit, including diabetic foot ulcers, chronic bone infections, non-healing surgical skin flaps and grafts, and crush injuries.

Learn more in the video, then call us at 716-852-1977 or visit our website at buffalovascularcare.com to make an appointment.
