Nonsurgical PAD Specialists in Los Angeles
What is Peripheral Artery Disease?
PAD is a condition caused by a buildup of plaque (fatty deposits) in the arteries that carry blood away from your heart to your legs and feet. This narrowing reduces blood flow, leading to pain, cramping, and even difficulty walking.
Symptoms of PAD
Leg pain, especially in the calves, thighs, or buttocks, that occurs with activity and improves with rest (claudication)
Muscle cramping in the legs or feet
Numbness or weakness in the legs or feet
Changes in skin color or texture on the legs or feet
Slow-healing sores on the toes or feet
Coldness in the legs or feet
Causes & Risk Factors
PAD is most commonly caused by atherosclerosis, the same process that leads to heart disease. Risk factors for PAD include:
- Smoking
- Diabetes
- Diabetes
- High blood pressure
- High cholesterol
- Obesity
- Family history of PAD
- Age (over 50)
Diagnosis of Peripheral Artery Disease
A noninvasive test that compares blood pressure in the ankle to the blood pressure in the arm. An ABI of less than 0.9 indicates PAD in the lower extremities.
Uses ultrasound to evaluate blood flow and blockages in the arteries and veins
An X-ray that shows where plaque has built up in the arteries
An X-ray that looks at the arteries in the arms, legs, chest, head, neck, abdomen, and pelvis
An MRI scan of the blood vessels that shows plaque buildup
Treatment Options for PAD
While lifestyle changes like smoking cessation, exercise, and managing other health conditions are important, interventional radiology offers minimally invasive treatments for PAD:
A tiny balloon is inserted into the blocked artery and inflated to open it.
A small mesh tube is placed in the artery to keep it open.
Plaque is removed from the artery using a catheter-based device.

Take the First Step Towards Better Health
Dr. Singha has helped me out so much. I have seen five different doctors and all of them kept offering the same option to get a myomectomy done but I knew there had to be a better option out there. A huge thanks to my primary doctor who introduced me to Dr. Singha. As soon as I received my first consultation I could already see that Dr. Singha knew exactly what he was doing and talking about, I was able to trust him right away. The staff has been the best and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. Now it has been a few months that I have received the UFE procedure and I can already tell the difference in my periods. Very light bleeding and almost no cramps at all. I will forever be grateful for Dr. Singha and all the staff who has been very supportive.

I’m very grateful with Dr. Singha’s office. The doctor and his staff and Ms. Sandra are very attentive and professional.
Dr. Singha is really very nice and explained everything very well. Ms. Sandra is always pleasant to speak to and does not get upset when I call her multiple times with the same questions over and over.
This office inspires me confidently.

His office provides vascular & interventional radiology. From the moment I walked in service and care was exceptional. The person at the front desk, the assistants and the doctor were both professional and very kind and friendly. Dr. Singha took his time to explain everything in terms I could understand. He even explained results about something I was told at my primary’s office which I didn’t understand. For both things he showed me as he explained on the screen on the laptop. He made sure I completely understood, how severe or mild things were and what to do. He was the most thorough and patient doctor I’ve ever been to in my over 60 years of life.
