USHV Expands to Tennessee Through Partnership with Apex Vascular

Expansion includes the Apex Vascular Outpatient Center, Tennessee’s first specialized vascular center, strengthening access to advanced outpatient care across East Tennessee.

US Heart & Vascular (“USHV”), a national provider of support services to independent cardiovascular physician practices, has partnered with Apex Vascular, a leading vascular surgery practice serving patients in seven clinics and an ambulatory vascular surgery center throughout East Tennessee.

The partnership represents USHV’s continued investment in physician-led vascular care and advanced outpatient treatment. Providers and patients will benefit from broader access to advanced vascular diagnostics, value-based care programs, clinical research opportunities, and administrative best practices from across the US Heart & Vascular network.

“Apex Vascular’s physician-led culture and deep commitment to supporting and educating patients make the practice an ideal partner as we expand into Tennessee,” said Robbie Allen, Chief Executive Officer of US Heart & Vascular. “Together, we will broaden access to advanced vascular care across East Tennessee while preserving the independence that allows physicians to stay focused on what matters most — their patients.”

Founded by board-certified vascular surgeon Christopher Pollock, MD, FACS, Apex Vascular provides comprehensive vascular surgery services, including treatment of peripheral artery disease (PAD), varicose veins and venous disease, carotid artery disease, aortic aneurysms, limb preservation, and dialysis access care. Their team of highly trained specialized vascular and microvascular surgeons are passionate about helping patients preserve their limbs and avoid amputation through alternative vascular treatment and care. Apex Vascular serves patients at locations in Knoxville, Lenoir City, Crossville, Decatur, Harrogate, Oak Ridge, and Sevierville.

“Our partnership with US Heart & Vascular reflects our commitment to delivering advanced, innovative, high-quality vascular surgery to the communities we serve,” said Dr. Christopher Pollock, board-certified vascular surgeon and founder of Apex Vascular. “With USHV’s resources and operational support, we will be able to invest in the latest technology, expand our services, and recruit top talent — while continuing to deliver the personalized, patient-centered care our patients know and trust.”

Apex Vascular operates the Apex Vascular Outpatient Center, Tennessee’s first specialized ambulatory vascular surgery center, providing patients with state-of-the-art vascular treatment and advanced procedures in a modern, comfortable outpatient environment. USHV’s growing portfolio of patient-centered, physician-led vascular practices also includes Davis Vascular Associates in Houston, Texas, founded by John Davis, III, MD.
