About Dr. Gardner

I specialize in Vascular Surgery because I am driven by a lifelong passion for helping others. From an early age, I harbored an unwavering desire to become a doctor, and I felt like becoming a surgeon would allow me to make the greatest impact. With years of experience in vascular surgery, I am privileged to offer an extraordinary level of care, having witnessed remarkable advancements from the era “open” vascular surgery to today’s minimally invasive techniques. I prioritize the unique needs of each patient, recognizing that medicine is far from one-size-fits-all. While embracing innovation is crucial, understanding the foundations of traditional approaches is equally important.

My little something extra

I teach Sunday school at my local Baptist Church, nurturing the spiritual growth of our community.
