The Spring VESS Session covered a wide breadth of topics ranging from disparities in care, innovation in endovascular techniques, and vascular surgery in younger patient populations. Imani sat down with Dr. Yazan Duwaryi, the VESS session program directory, to give a quick recap.

He specializes in endoluminal and open vascular surgery, with his primary area of clinical interest being complex abdominal and thoracic aortic pathology.
