Patient Experience
As a 28-year-old marathon runner, I developed severe leg pain that threatened my career. Dr. Manchikanti diagnosed an uncommon vascular compression syndrome and performed a minimally invasive procedure. I was back to training in 6 weeks and just completed my first post-surgery marathon.
My 82-year-old mother suffered from a sudden aortic aneurysm rupture. Dr. Manchikanti's emergency endovascular repair saved her life when we thought all hope was lost. Her recovery was remarkably smooth, and she's now gardening again with her grandchildren.
A construction accident left me with a severed artery in my arm at age 45. Dr. Manchikanti's rapid microvascular reconstruction not only saved my limb but preserved full function. I've returned to work with complete use of my hand thanks to his expertise.
Our 16-year-old daughter was diagnosed with rare vascular malformations that caused chronic pain. Dr. Manchikanti's innovative embolization approach provided relief after years of suffering. Seeing her attend school regularly again has been our family's greatest blessing.
As a diabetic patient with non-healing foot ulcers for months, I faced possible amputation. Dr. Manchikanti's arterial bypass surgery restored circulation completely. My wound healed within weeks, and I'm walking normally again at age 62.
During my pregnancy, I developed life-threatening deep vein thrombosis. Dr. Manchikanti managed my care with special protocols that kept both me and my baby safe. He coordinated with my obstetric team throughout, and I delivered a healthy baby girl.
My husband's varicose veins had become severely painful and bleeding. At 55, Dr. Manchikanti performed laser ablation that was virtually painless. The procedure was so effective he was back to his daily walks the next day with immediate relief.
As a professional musician with Raynaud's phenomenon, my fingers would go numb during performances. Dr. Manchikanti's sympathetic block treatment changed everything. I can now play through entire concerts without interruption at age 34.
Our 8-year-old son had a congenital vascular anomaly affecting his leg growth. Dr. Manchikanti's careful sclerotherapy treatments over several months normalized the blood flow. His legs are now symmetrical, and he plays soccer without limitation.
After failed vascular procedures elsewhere, I came to Dr. Manchikanti with chronic mesenteric ischemia causing constant abdominal pain. His complex bypass surgery resolved symptoms I'd endured for years. At 71, I can finally enjoy meals without fear.
A rock climbing accident caused severe vascular damage to my lower leg. Dr. Manchikanti's emergency vascular repair and fasciotomy prevented compartment syndrome. My recovery exceeded expectations, and I'm already back to moderate climbing at age 29.
My mother's dialysis access had failed multiple times until Dr. Manchikanti created a new arteriovenous fistula using innovative techniques. At 78, she's had uninterrupted dialysis for over a year now with excellent flow rates.
As a long-distance truck driver, I developed deep vein thrombosis from sitting. Dr. Manchikanti's thrombectomy and stent placement resolved the acute issue, and his preventive advice has kept me complication-free on the road at age 52.
Our teenage daughter developed Takayasu's arteritis, a rare inflammatory condition. Dr. Manchikanti's medical management and strategic interventions during flare-ups have kept her stable and active through high school years.
