Vascular Surgery

York and North Yorkshire Vascular Unit

The Vascular unit includes a team of seven consultant vascular surgeons who cover a large geographical area including York, Scarborough , Bridlington , Malton ,Selby , Harrogate and Wetherby hospitals.

The unit also includes consultant interventional radiologists and vascular specialist nurses along with a team of junior doctors, nurses, podiatrists and other allied health professionals. The team offers a full range of vascular and endovascular procedures across York and North Yorkshire.

Vascular surgery in North Yorkshire, including parts of East Yorkshire, is mainly provided from York Hospital where all arterial cases are performed. Some non-invasive investigations are carried out at our other sites wherever possible- so that patients can be seen closer to their home. We also carry out day case surgery at both York and Scarborough hospitals.

Bridlington - Wednesday pm
Harrogate - Monday am and Friday pm
Scarborough - Monday pm and Friday am
