Are you or a loved one living with peripheral artery disease (PAD)? Join us for a special event where you can get your questions answered by a leading expert, Dr. Ashkan Karimi.

Peripheral artery disease is a serious condition that affects the blood vessels in your legs and arms. It's caused by a buildup of fatty deposits that narrow the arteries, reducing blood flow. Symptoms can include painful cramping, numbness, and difficulty walking.

Left untreated, PAD can lead to serious complications like critical limb ischemia, heart attack, and stroke. But there are effective ways to manage and even prevent the progression of this disease.

That's why we're excited to have Dr. Karimi, an experienced interventional cardiologist, share the latest information on PAD prevention, treatment options, and strategies to improve your quality of life. He'll cover topics like:

Understanding the causes and risk factors of PAD

Recognizing the early warning signs and getting properly diagnosed

Lifestyle changes that can slow down or reverse PAD

Minimally invasive procedures to restore blood flow

Emerging therapies and research in PAD management

This is your chance to get personalized advice from an expert and learn how to take control of your peripheral artery health.
