Who treats claudication?

So, can you please tell us who treats claudication? Absolutely. I think the first thing to note is that claudication is a symptom affecting your legs, but the disease is affecting your entire body. So it's really important to treat risk factors and risk factors can be treated by a vascular surgeon, a cardiologist, general physician, general practitioner or a specialist nurse. In terms of treating the actual blood flow to the leg, Typically this is treated by a vascular surgeon who may be able to offer both the bypass and the angioplasty options or in conjunction with a radiologist who may well perform the angioplasty procedure in conjunction with the vascular surgeon who you're under in terms of care. Those are the main groups treating and looking after patients with intermittent claudication.
