Vascular Surgery Specialists (VSS) is a private, physician-owned vascular and endovascular surgery practice headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, founded in 2005 and operating as a division of Arizona Advanced Surgery. The practice provides comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of arterial and venous disease through three Arizona locations in Phoenix, Mesa, and Flagstaff, with hospital staff privileges at Banner Health, Dignity Health, and Honor Health facilities across the Phoenix metro. Its core clinical offerings include carotid endarterectomy and stenting, open and endovascular aortic aneurysm repair, peripheral artery bypass and endovascular interventions, dialysis access creation, vena cava filter placement, varicose vein treatment, and thromboembolism management. The Vein Center at VSS delivers minimally invasive sclerotherapy and radiofrequency ablation for varicose veins under local anesthetic, while the in-office angio-suite (office-based lab) provides same-day duplex ultrasound, ABI testing, venous reflux studies, angiography, angioplasty, stent placement, atherectomy, thrombectomy, and dialysis access interventions using GE ultrasound, the Vision VeinViewer near-infrared imaging system, and a VNUS radiofrequency generator.

The practice is staffed by three fellowship-trained, board-certified vascular surgeons (Dr. Jeromy S. Brink, trained at Mayo Clinic; Dr. Wilson Harrison, trained at the University of Nebraska; Dr. Martin P. Zomaya, trained at Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson) supported by two board-certified nurse practitioners (Ashley Forester and Stephanie Wilson). VSS accepts commercial, Medicare, AHCCCS, and Marketplace plans, files insurance claims as a patient convenience, and grows volume primarily through physician referrals, online patient registration via an eClinicalWorks patient portal, and Google Reviews-driven patient self-referral. The practice does not disclose pricing; revenues are generated through professional services billing and insurance reimbursement.
