Review quotes

"A very worthwhile reference for vascular surgeons, surgical residents, and medical students, because of its authoritative authorship, manageable size, and the study questions that accompany each chapter."-Journal of Vascular Surgery

"Written by recognized authorities in the field, this edition has been fully updated and clearly fulfills the original goal of providing a thorough review of vascular surgery. It is a highly recommended tool for candidates preparing for certification or recertification in vascular surgery, but is also an excellent reference for vascular practitioners."- Heron Rodriguez, M.D. (Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine) 85/100 Doody Rating!

About the author

WM

Wesley S. Moore

Dr. Moore graduated from The University of California, San Francisco. He completed general surgery training at UCSF in 1964. He spent two years in the army in Germany, returning to San Francisco for specialty training in vascular surgery. Upon completion, he was appointed as an assistant professor of surgery at the University of California, San Francisco, and Chief of Vascular Surgery at the Veterans Administration Medical center. In 1977, he went to the University of Arizona to start a vascular surgery program and was appointed Professor of Surgery. In 1980, he was recruited by UCLA to head the vascular surgery program at that institution where he has remained. Dr. Moore is a recognized expert in the surgical management of carotid artery disease. He has been a participant and leader in all the major clinical trials and has edited the definitive textbook entitled Surgery for Cerebrovascular Disease. Dr. Moore also developed an interest in stent-grafting of thoracic and abdominal aortic aneurysms. On February 10th, 1993 implanted the first commercially manufactured stent graft, Endovascular Technologies (EVT), worldwide. Since then, he has led the UCLA program to become a leader in aortic stent-graft clinical experience. Edit
