I'm interviewing a vascular surgeon who has PAD… and the doctor who treated him. Get ready for an inside look at what medicine looks like from both sides. 

Dr. John Phillips and I are talking to Dr. Kevin Lurie, a vascular surgeon from Alaska who was recently diagnosed with Peripheral Artery Disease and treated for blockages below the knee. 

We're also talking to Dr. Amr El Serghany, the vascular surgeon from Hawaii who performed the procedures using the Reflow Medical retractable stent. 

Patients say it all the time: "If doctors had PAD, they would understand the pain." Now you'll hear from one who does… and the doctor who treated him. 

This conversation goes deeper than anything we've done before: • What it's like for a doctor to become the patient • The reality of PAD pain and limitations • How treatment decisions are made in real life • What changes when the physician understands the experience firsthand • How this is reshaping the way both doctors approach care This is where clinical expertise meets lived experience — and it changes everything.
