Venous Access

Purpose

Generally, venous access refers to the insertion of a catheter (thin, flexible tube) into a central vein to deliver treatments, draw regular blood samples, or provide access to a vein over extended periods of time without the need for repeated injections. 

This procedure is typically carried out in an angiography suite using ultrasound and x-ray guidance. 

Testimonials

The Patient Experience

Dr. Robbins looked at my imaging and made an appointment that same day for me to come in. At Vascular Tyler, it’s just like a family environment every time I come in here. If I have to go the doctor’s (office), this is where I want to go.
L. Cunningham, Patient
We don’t want to spend a whole lot of time with rehabilitation or in some sort of medical facility, so it was great discovering that there’s only little or no downtime. It was a matter of hours instead of days or weeks.
B. Finch, Patient
I had excruciating pain and was told I needed a knee replacement. But Dr. Robbins said I just need vascular surgery. They gave me relief from my pain, and they’re kind and interested in you as a patient and a person. This is the place to come.
M. Finch, Patient
