As our population grows and the proportion of people living past age 65 increases, so does the incidence of one of the most unappreciated chronic diseases, peripheral artery disease (PAD). Adding in the unhealthy lifestyle of many modern North Americans, obesity, and diabetes, we are observing the consequences of those diseases that progress with time.
