Vascular surgery education on Instagram
Dr Andrew Choong on Instagram
Short educational videos from a vascular surgeon in Singapore, covering varicose veins, DVT, aortic disease, poor circulation and vascular health.
Dr Andrew Choong shares practical, patient-facing Instagram videos about vascular, venous, endovascular and aortic conditions affecting patients in Singapore and the region. The aim is to help patients, families and referring doctors recognise important symptoms earlier and understand when specialist assessment, vascular ultrasound, scan review or treatment discussion may be appropriate.

Instagram is used here as a short-form education channel. The videos introduce common vascular symptoms, explain why scans may be needed, and help patients understand when a clinic consultation with a vascular specialist may be appropriate.
