SERVING OAKLAND GARDENS, QUEENS

Vascular & Orthopedic Care for Oakland Gardens, Without the Trip Into Manhattan

Vascular, orthopedic, and minimally invasive care for Oakland Gardens patients — at our Forest Hills office.

If you live in Oakland Gardens, you know the rhythm of this corner of northeastern Queens: tree-lined blocks off Springfield Boulevard, the quiet of the garden apartments near Cunningham Park, and the steady hum of the Long Island Expressway carrying everyone else somewhere. When knee pain, leg swelling, or a stubborn vascular issue starts slowing you down, the last thing you want is to add a long commute into the city on top of it. Our Forest Hills office keeps specialty care close to home.

M&S Vascular and Orthopedic Group brings together vascular surgery, interventional radiology, orthopedic surgery, and sports medicine under one roof. That matters for a neighborhood like Oakland Gardens, where many residents are weighing whether aching knees or heavy, swollen legs really require major surgery. A number of our treatments are minimally invasive and image-guided, performed on an outpatient basis, so you can get answers and care without a hospital stay pulling you away from family and routine.

Whether you are an active resident playing tennis at Cunningham Park, a parent managing varicose veins after years on your feet, or someone who has been told knee replacement is the only option, we are here to talk through alternatives. Our focus is on conservative, modern approaches first, with clear explanations of what may help and what to realistically expect.

Frequently Asked Questions

Oakland Gardens Patients Ask

How far is the Forest Hills office from Oakland Gardens?
It is a relatively short trip across central Queens. Most Oakland Gardens residents reach our Forest Hills office by taking the Long Island Expressway or Grand Central Parkway west toward the Austin Street area, which is far quicker than commuting into Manhattan for the same specialty care.
Do I need surgery for chronic knee pain?
Not always. Many patients are candidates for non-surgical options, including Genicular Artery Embolization (GAE), a minimally invasive, image-guided procedure that may help reduce knee osteoarthritis pain. We review your situation and discuss alternatives to knee replacement before recommending any major surgery.
What can be done about varicose veins and leg swelling?
We evaluate and treat varicose veins and venous insufficiency with minimally invasive, outpatient approaches. After an exam, we explain which options may be appropriate for your legs and what kind of improvement is realistic, without promising specific outcomes.
Is interventional radiology different from regular surgery?
Yes. Interventional radiology uses imaging to guide minimally invasive procedures through very small access points, often on an outpatient basis. Many of our embolization treatments, including those for knees, fibroids, and the prostate, fall into this category.
