Thank You Dr. Paul Riesenman

We wanted to thank Dr. Paul Riesenman for speaking to our students recently. Dr. Riesenman is a vascular surgeon at Banner Heart Hospital.

He spoke to the students about hemodialysis access fistulas and grafts, including the rational, mechanisms of renal failure/access complication, common connections, graft configurations, duplex protocol, evaluation of flow volume, evaluation for steal syndrome, B-mode/color flow/Doppler interpretation and medical/surgical treatment options.

He also shared his personal expertise with the students in regards to hemodialysis access duplex tips and tricks.

We love providing our students with the opportunity to learn and network with local experts!
