Vascular surgery is a surgical subspecialty in which diseases of the vascular system, including the arteries, veins, and lymphatic circulation, are managed by medical therapy, minimally-invasive catheter procedures, and surgical reconstruction. A vascular surgeon diagnoses, treats, and manages conditions in the arteries and veins, also called the blood vessels. These specialists treat a range of health problems, from spider and varicose veins to life-threatening aneurysms, and can help patients manage chronic conditions throughout their lives.

Due to his extensive training and research experience, Dr. Tulsyan regularly is called on by companies to help in the development of new technologies and treatments. He has performed thousands of vein procedures and is one of the most highly trained and experienced vein specialists in New Jersey. 

A prolific writer, he has also authored over 20 research articles published in peer-reviewed journals, as well as 2 individual book chapters on vascular surgery. Among his many service awards include “Patients Choice”, “Compassionate Doctor”, and “On-Time Doctor.”
