Paul van Bemmelen, MD, PhD, FACS

As a vascular surgeon, my goal is to preserve the highest quality of life and independence possible.

Our team’s mission is to empower patients and families with the information that they need in order to make the best decisions under difficult circumstances. We believe that overcoming psychological barriers can be just as important as technical expertise.

My vascular team and I understand that any visit related to serious limb circulation problems presents both patients and their family members with a lot of anxiety about the future.

Prior to their first visit, I notice that patients often feel that they have lost control over their own situation. Therefore, I ensure that part of each consultation is to restore the patients’ confidence in their own ability to choose what suits them best.

I pride my reputation on being honest and presenting options to you that I would offer to my own family.

We look forward to treating patients in the Philadelphia area who suffer from

• Peripheral arterial disease (poor arterial circulation)
• Chronic arterial ulceration
• Diabetic foot ulcers
• Other non-healing wounds
• Non-reconstructable PAD
• Aneurysms
• Carotid artery disease

To schedule a consultation, please call (215) 707-5705

Practice location:  3401 Broad Street, Philadelphia, PA 19140
