COURIER LIFE, JANUARY 22-28, 2021 9
Dr. Natalie Marks is the
first board-certified female
vascular medicine specialist
in Brooklyn, bringing a unique
perspective to this important
field of medicine.
She works as an integral
part of the vascular surgery
team of The Vascular Institute
of New York, which offers a full
spectrum of surgical and endovascular
methods for treatment
of vascular disorders,
working under the directorship
of world-renowned vascular
surgeon Dr. Enrico Ascher.
Dr. Marks is proud to be
part of the team.
“At the Vascular Institute
of New York, we strive to offer
each patient the most effective
and the least invasive diagnostic
and treatment options for
the management of their vascular
conditions,” she says.
Combining expertise, empathy,
and compassion, Dr.
Marks is able to provide her
patients with exceptional care,
treating issues such as varicose
veins, spider veins, nonhealing
wounds, peripheral
arterial disease, and more
with minimum invasive procedures.
“I am there for each patient,
every step of the way,”
she says.
She gladly discusses individual
cases with referring
physicians, and is available
to see patients in consultation,
actively participating in
perioperative care for those
undergoing various vascular
procedures. Together, the doctors
will evaluate all patients’
comorbidities, assess all risks,
and will make recommendations
for the most comprehensive
vascular care.
Like Dr. Ascher — who has
published more than 250 scientific
articles in medical journals,
and more than 65 textbook
chapters — Dr. Marks, too, is a
leader in the field. She has authored
more than 100 scientific
articles in peer-reviewed journals
and 16 textbook chapters.
She has lectured extensively
about various vascular topics,
sharing expertise with peers
around the globe.
“She brings a new dimension
in the care of patients
with vascular diseases,” says
Dr. Ascher. “She highlights
the importance of medical
management to avoid surgery
whenever possible.”
Dr. Marks is skilled in all
the latest techniques in dealing
with stroke prevention,
aneurysms, peripheral arterial
disease, and in caring for
patients with conditions that
cause leg pain and swelling.
Often leg swelling — a common
condition — is an indication
that veins are not working
properly.
The Vascular Institute of
New York is a leader in the
care of limb salvage, developing
pioneering techniques,
and saving limbs that others
thought couldn’t be saved.
The Vascular Institute of
New York is a state-of-the-art
facility, with an attractive office
and highly trained staff
of professionals. Some of the
highlights include on-site fully
accredited and federally certified
operating room, recovery
room, staff anesthesiologist,
intravascular ultrasound, and
a state-of-the-art wound care
center.
“Our team strives to offer
each patient the most effective
and the least invasive diagnostic
and treatment options
for the management of their
vascular conditions,” says Dr.
Marks. “We are committed to
providing patients with the
most up-to-date treatments for
