Mission

The mission of the Society for Vascular Medicine is to promote and advance the discipline of vascular medicine and the care of patients with vascular disease by:

Establishing standards for post-graduate training and stimulating the formation of vascular medicine training programs (e.g., fellowship programs)
Developing educational activities including continuing medical education programs for trainees and health care providers (e.g., conferences, webinars, journal clubs etc.)
Fostering research in vascular medicine and vascular biology (e.g., Vascular Medicine journal)
Promoting interdisciplinary clinical excellence in the diagnosis and treatment of vascular disease through the creation of care standards and by engaging in quality improvement activities
Serving an advisory role to educational institutions, government agencies, and other health care organizations

Work

The Society of Vascular Medicine promotes and advances the field of the Vascular Medicine to improve the care of its patients.^[1]^[2]^[3] It’s membership is multidisciplinary, drawing from specialists in internal medicine, cardiology, vascular surgery, interventional radiology, hematology, and podiatry, among others.

Conferences

The Society for Vascular Medicine hosts two major conferences annually:

The Vascular Scientific Sessions. This is an annual international medical conference held in the United States. It focuses on clinical vascular medicine as well as vascular related medical research (including basic science, translational science, outcomes science and clinical trials).
The Society for Vascular Medicine Fellows and Advanced practice nurse Course.

Structure

The Society for Vascular Medicine is a volunteer, 501(c)(3) organization. It has an Executive Committee and a Board of Trustees. There are several committees. Each committee has a chair and a co-chair who serve for a period of 1-3 years. The society is managed by a management company, Veritas AMC.
