A Holiday Evening with UCSF Vascular Surgery ✨✨

Earlier this week, the VSIG at UCSF hosted a vascular surgery skills lab to help medical students get hands-on experience and learn more about the best specialty. Grateful for the immense support from UCSF Vascular Surgery faculty/residents and LeMaitre that made this event possible!
