Marcelo’s Role at Astra Vein Treatment Center

Since joining Astra Vein Treatment Center in 2024, Marcelo has worked with the practice’s physicians on image-guided, minimally invasive care. That work includes venograms and angiograms, the imaging studies that show physicians which vessels to treat before and during a procedure.

He also evaluates patients during peripheral artery disease (PAD) consultations, so patients see a provider who understands both the imaging and the treatment behind their plan.

Clinical Background

Marcelo’s background is in outpatient radiology and interventional imaging. Across several New York imaging centers, he has placed PICC lines, accessed and removed ports, performed image-guided joint injections, and monitored patients under IV moderate sedation.

That procedural experience carries over to how he prepares and monitors patients at Astra Vein Treatment Center.
