I was thoroughly impressed with my first encounter with Vascular Centers of Texas. The provider(s) listened to my situation regarding my Bilateral Knee Pain. I have tried Rehab, Steroids, knee braces and pain meds, with no relief. He provided all my options to relieve the pain and explained each option in language I could understand. I look forward to my GAE (Genicular Artery Embolization) and finally some pain relief. Thank you so Much Dr. Amit Sharma and NP. Colin Kugelmann. JD

My experience at the Institute was very good. People were friendly. Dr. was extremely informative and helpful to explain the process in the procedure and for me the results were immediate.

I was a questionable candidate for full knee replacement due to concerns for my adrenal insufficiency risks in prior surgeries. True Recision/Vascular Institute offered a proper alternative . It’s hard to believe how successful the GAE procedure on my left knee turned out. From great welcoming staff, well trained pre-op nurses, and easy bedside comforting personality and skills of Dr. H., they all made the procedure go so well. I was pain-free following surgery and have remained so. Simply amazing after years of severe knee pain. I cannot wait to have my right knee done in a month.

Staff was excellent and very friendly. The explanation was easy to understand. And I was convinced I want to proceed. All my anxiety was relieved. I am looking forward to the procedure. LaVerne Stinnett

I have had the GAD procedure on both knees. This has been very successful to alleviate knee pain. I am able to stand longer to do household chores. I can now take Physical Therapy. Dr. Sharma is very kind and professional. He answered any questions I had. The staff is caring and attentive to your needs. I highly recommend this center for the GAD procedure and was happy I found them for help with this relatively new vein procedure by a knowledgeable physician.

I found True Precision on Facebook I do believe. The shorts basically saying they could get rid/lessen pain in joints without an invasive surgery and hardly any down time. I followed the site and set up a consultation. Once I had the consultation and found out that my insurance covered the procedure 100% (validity of the treatment), I went ahead and followed up with the procedure on my left knee. That was 2 weeks ago. Yesterday I had my right knee done because of how I was impressed with how the left knee went. Dr. Hunter was thorough with his explanation of what he was going to do and was honest that results do vary in clients. If you are like me any improvement in my pain/ache/stiffness and the fact that insurance covers it was a major positive. I can tell you that with the left knee I no longer have the aching when I drive, sleep and the stiffness from sitting or sleeping is gone. no more getting up and waiting to see if my knee will be okay for the first step. I am thinking I am on the really good side of what this procedure produces. I want to share it with everyone because if this prolongs the fact that I need a new knee and will get me out on the field playing soccer with my 9 year old daughter. sign me up.... This might be a bit long winded, but the outcome is truly amazing for me and I wish only the best for any who will follow in my footsteps. by the way my footsteps after the procedure are much more confident and solid.

I trust my gut feeling and I still had to go to see if this was a good idea to get a new experience would be for me, and if this was going to be a good fit for me for the future, I was taken in on time with a waiting room full of people and the team of the PA and the nurse and the radiologist were very kind and timely to get my questions answered and to give me the best choice for me I went ahead with some treatment They had my records for my other doctor in Texas and with some help I made a choice to get things started here with them and see where I go from here and see how I work with the plan that I came up with that I can live with and they understood completely

I had Right knee done last year they did such a great job I did my left knee Friday a little sore but no problem the nurses are so nice and professional Dr Hunter is #1 thanks Vascular Institute

Google

I had the generac embolization procedure done on Friday 10/11/24. Due to countless issues and my reluctance to have knee replacement I choose this procedure. The procedure itself was pretty painless, post procedure I experienced a little discomfort. I used the pain medication prescribed on the first night and that was all. Aside from swelling at the ankle at the point of incision and tightness in the achilles and calf no other area of discomfort. Pain the area of the knee seems to have lessened considerably following the procedure. If I can be pain free in this area for a while I would deem this succesful, only time will tell. The entire staff at True Precision was wonderful, professional and courteous. Thank you.

Google

Other than being behind schedule when I arrived. The procedure went well and I was satisfied with the experience. Woke on the next more a bit sore in the calf, knee and quad areas but once that subsided I had no other pains to speak of. Some lingering soreness after a week but that’s to be expected. Overall great experience and wonderful staff. They made extra effort to communicate with me considering I’m Deaf. The extra effort goes a long way for and five stars is warranted.

I was in a lot of pain when I went into the office Wednesday, I was taken back to the room very quickly. The doctor came in, did an exam of both my knee and my elbow and injected steroids into both sites. really liked the way the surgeon advised the pros and cons of the steroid use. I have found a great deal of relief by Friday in my knee in particular. This office although it is quite a trip has very caring, personable staff and doctors. Thank You

Google

From the moment I walked in I was made to feel welcome. Everyone was very nice and helpful which considering that this is a busy place. I noticed all the patients were treated with respect and kindness. No talking behind the scenes about crabby people or any personal gossip. I may be in pain when I go in there but I hope to always leave with a smile on my face. Thank you all and keep up the great work! Thank you Justin/PA for an awesome experience!!!

From the beginning of my visit I felt as though all involved in the process were well trained professionals. I’ve always been nervous going to doctors’ offices, but they were able to instill confidence and help me relax.

Had the GAE procedure done on my right knee on 10/11/24. Pretty painless. Vascular Center was very professional and courteous. Little discomfort overnight. Hoping that pain will be elevaiated, will know better in a few days. Keeping my fingers crossed. So far, so good! .
