Under the direction of Dr. Riester, the interdisciplinary vascular center is one of only five vascular medicine centers in Baden-Württemberg and 35 in all of Germany that has been audited and certified by three professional associations. Specialists from various medical fields, including vascular surgery, angiology, cardiology, radiology, and neurology, work together here to ensure optimal care for patients with complex vascular diseases. This holistic approach makes individual care and customized treatment possible for each patient. Dr. Riester is not only an experienced surgeon, but also an expert in minimally invasive endovascular procedures. With his additional qualification as an endovascular surgeon, he is also able to operate within the vessels themselves, which enables him to perform a variety of complex procedures, including the treatment of aortic aneurysms and other vascular pathologies. His modern treatment approach includes innovative techniques that ensure precise diagnosis and gentle therapy.

The interdisciplinary vascular center offers a wide range of diagnostic and therapeutic options for patients with vascular diseases.

Modern imaging techniques such as angiography enable precise visualization of the vascular anatomy and help to detect vascular defects at an early stage. In addition, the center offers a variety of minimally invasive treatment options, including balloon dilatation and stent implantation for vascular stenosis, embolization for arteriovenous malformations, and thrombectomy for acute vascular occlusions. Another focus of the vascular center under the direction of Dr. Riester is the treatment of venous diseases such as varicose veins and thromboses. Both conservative and interventional treatment options are available to alleviate the symptoms and prevent complications. The center also offers a specialized wound outpatient clinic for patients with chronic wounds, particularly in connection with venous circulatory disorders.

Dr. Riester and his team place great value on patient-centered care and close cooperation with other medical specialties. Regular case discussions and interdisciplinary consultations ensure that every patient receives the best possible treatment. With his commitment to excellent medical care and continuous further development, Dr. Thomas Riester provides important support for the interdisciplinary vascular center at the SRH Klinikum Karlsbad-Langensteinbach and makes a significant contribution to improving the quality of life of patients with vascular diseases.
