Prime Vascular Care operates two dedicated vascular clinics in Northern Virginia, in Sterling and Woodbridge. Whether you are coming from Alexandria, Fairfax county or anywhere across the broader Northern Virginia region, you can visit whichever location is most convenient to you and receive the same standard of specialist-level vascular care at either clinic.
Unlike general surgery practices that rotate through a wide range of conditions, Prime Vascular Care is structured entirely around vascular health. Every evaluation, every imaging protocol and every treatment decision reflects that singular focus. Referring physicians in Alexandria and Woodbridge trust us to stay closely involved throughout a patient’s care, not just at the point of diagnosis.
Dedicated vascular clinics in Sterling and Woodbridge, VA
Coordinated communication with your referring physician throughout treatment
Focused entirely on vascular surgery, from complex arterial disease to venous conditions
No referral required to book your first appointment
Duplex ultrasound completed during the same visit
Treatment plan discussed and documented at the first appointment
Varicose veins produce symptoms that extend well beyond appearance. Persistent leg aching, swelling that builds through the day and a heaviness that limits normal activity are among the most common complaints from patients who come to us. Our varicose vein surgeon uses duplex ultrasound to identify which veins are failing at the valve level, then addresses them directly using minimally invasive techniques performed in-office under local anesthesia. We also provide structured guidance on varicose vein prevention so patients understand the factors that contribute to recurrence.
Recovery is typically measured in days rather than weeks, and most patients notice meaningful symptom relief soon after treatment.
Laser ablation, sclerotherapy and microphlebectomy available
In-office procedures with no hospital admission required
Ultrasound follow-up to confirm successful vein closure
Prevention guidance included as part of every treatment plan
Peripheral artery disease progresses quietly. Leg cramping during walking, unusual fatigue in the lower limbs and wounds on the feet or ankles that are slow to heal are frequently dismissed as unrelated complaints, allowing arterial narrowing to advance without treatment. Our board-certified vascular surgeon evaluates PAD through ankle-brachial index testing and detailed arterial imaging, then develops a management plan that addresses both immediate circulation and long-term limb health.
For patients with advanced disease, our limb-preservation approach prioritizes restoring blood flow before irreversible damage occurs.
Ankle-brachial index testing and full arterial assessment
Minimally invasive interventions to restore circulation
Limb-preservation focus for high-risk or advanced presentations
Ongoing monitoring to prevent further arterial decline
For patients on hemodialysis, vascular access is not a secondary concern. It is what makes treatment possible. Prime Vascular Care specializes in AV fistula and graft placement, along with prompt intervention when access is threatened by clotting or flow disruption. We maintain active coordination with nephrology and dialysis teams throughout the patient’s care to prevent gaps between appointments from becoming access failures.
Early detection through patient education and scheduled monitoring helps sustain access function over the long term.
Minimally invasive AV fistula and graft placement
Rapid response to access complications including clotting and flow changes
Wound care for skin complications at or near the access site
Integrated coordination with dialysis and nephrology providers
Deep vein thrombosis requires prompt, specialist-level evaluation. The risk of pulmonary embolism makes accurate assessment of clot size, location and extent a critical first step before any treatment decision is made. Our surgeon develops an evidence-based management plan and monitors recovery closely to reduce the risk of post-thrombotic syndrome and long-term venous damage.
Patients leave each appointment understanding their status, what to watch for and how to protect their vascular health through recovery.
Urgent evaluation for confirmed or suspected DVT
Treatment tailored to clot characteristics and patient risk profile
Structured follow-up to catch complications before they develop
Education on compression, safe activity levels and warning signs
Dr. Akinrinlola is a board-certified vascular surgeon with extensive experience across hospital and outpatient vascular settings. His clinical focus covers limb salvage, carotid artery interventions, peripheral vascular procedures, dialysis access, and aneurysm repair across both open surgical and minimally invasive endovascular approaches. Patients throughout Alexandria choose Prime Vascular Care because Dr. Akinrinlola takes the time to explain findings clearly and walks through every treatment option before any procedure is recommended.
Prime Vascular Care accepts a range of insurance plans and works to make specialist vascular care reachable for patients across Northern Virginia. Both our Sterling and Woodbridge locations are available for new patient appointments, and no referral is required to schedule a consultation.
For patients managing chronic vascular conditions, the difference between a practice that treats and discharges and one that monitors and adjusts is significant. At Prime Vascular Care, follow-up is not optional. It is structured into every care plan from the first appointment forward.
I was dealing with varicose veins for years, and the pain had started to affect my daily life. I came across Prime Vascular Care and I’m so glad I did. Dr. Akinrinlola and his team were incredibly thorough in explaining my treatment options. The procedure was quick and nearly painless, and I’ve noticed a huge difference in how my legs feel. I’m finally able to enjoy activities I couldn’t before. Highly recommend Prime Vascular Care to anyone needing vascular treatment in Virginia!
After being diagnosed with deep vein thrombosis, I was worried about my future health. Dr. Akinrinlola explained everything clearly and gave me confidence that I was in great hands. The team at Prime Vascular Care not only treated my condition effectively but also made me feel supported every step of the way. I’ve since made a full recovery and can’t thank them enough for their expert care.
I had been suffering from peripheral artery disease for some time, and I felt like I had no options left. Prime Vascular Care was recommended to me, and I’m so grateful I made the appointment. The treatment plan was tailored to my specific needs, and Dr. Akinrinlola’s expertise really put me at ease. My circulation has improved dramatically, and I feel so much better. I can walk without pain again, and it’s all thanks to the excellent care I received.
I was referred to Prime Vascular Care for an abdominal aortic aneurysm, and I was nervous about the procedure. Dr. Akinrinlola took the time to explain everything in detail, and his confidence really helped calm my fears. The surgery was a success, and I’m now recovering well. I can’t express how much I appreciate the professionalism and kindness of the entire team. They truly care about their patients’ well-being.
No referral or prior diagnosis is required. Unexplained leg pain, ankle swelling, surface vein changes or a wound that is slow to heal are all valid reasons to book a consultation.
Treated veins will not reopen. New veins can develop over time due to factors such as prolonged standing, genetics or hormonal changes. Follow-up ultrasounds are scheduled to catch any new activity early.
Leg pain during walking, persistent ankle swelling, a non-healing wound on the lower leg or foot or a visible vein change are all reasons to seek evaluation. Earlier assessment means more treatment options and better outcomes.
More common than most expect. Peripheral artery disease is frequently misattributed to joint pain or normal aging, leaving many patients undiagnosed for years despite manageable treatment options being available.
Prime Vascular Care has two Northern Virginia locations in Sterling and Woodbridge. The Sterling location is approximately 32.8 miles from Alexandria, around 42 minutes via I-495 W and VA-7 W/Leesburg Pike with tolls on this route. Patients from Woodbridge and Prince William County can visit the Woodbridge clinic directly.
At Prime Vascular Care, we prioritize your well-being with compassionate, patient-centered treatment and clinical excellence.
