Dr. Samantha Patterson

Samantha Patterson specializes in surgery with a focus on vascular conditions. Her practice centers on treating complex circulatory system disorders that affect blood flow throughout the body. She works extensively with patients experiencing peripheral artery disease, where narrowed arteries reduce blood flow to the limbs, and atherosclerosis, the buildup of plaque in arterial walls. Patterson also treats claudication, a condition causing leg pain during walking due to inadequate blood flow.

Patterson practices at CHI Memorial Vascular Surgery Specialists in Chattanooga, Tennessee. She performs diagnostic procedures including Doppler ultrasound to evaluate blood flow and detect blockages in vessels. Her expertise extends to carotid artery ultrasound, which examines the major arteries in the neck that supply blood to the brain. She also conducts contrast echocardiography, an advanced imaging technique that provides detailed views of heart function and blood flow patterns.
