Faculty
The Vascular Surgery Faculty are busy clinical surgeons. However, the magnet that attracted them to Maine Medical Center is the opportunity to teach medical students and residents, and to continue to bring new ideas and technology to the bedside and to the operating room.
Though the Vascular Integrated Residency is a new program at the Medical Center, the division has a long standing tradition of outstanding teaching and training of surgical residents.
