Staff from Upstate's Vascular Surgery and Endovascular Services host a free screening for vascular disease from 8:30 to 4 p.m. Wednesday, June 27 at HealthLink, 6333 Route 298 in East Syracuse. Register now by calling 315-464-8668.

Vascular disease can cause stroke, aneurysm rupture and poor circulation. People with diabetes are especially at risk. This free screening includes a carotid ultrasound, abdominal ultrasound, ankle-brachial blood pressure and a counseling session with a vascular specialist to review your same-day screening results.

This event is for people age 55 and over who have not been screened in the last five years.
