Dr. Kyla Shelton
Dr. Kyla R. Shelton wants to see her patients get back to living their best life. Vascular surgery encompasses both open and endovascular approaches for patient care. For her, having the ability to use multiple tools, for instance, open bypass surgery versus placing stents, gives her the unique ability to determine the treatment that is individualized and best suited for the patient.
