PAD Patient Voices: Ismael Hurtado

When Ismael Hurtado sought care at Rush Hospital, it was his last chance to save his right foot, which suffered from poor circulation due to peripheral artery disease (PAD). But after a long and difficult journey, he's recovering.

"My advice to others is to trust these doctors and the new procedures. If it worked for me, it can work for you. I'm grateful and thankful from the bottom of my heart."
