Dr. Alan Benvenisty operates out of Mount Sinai Hospital, Mount Sinai Morningside and Mount Sinai West and leads the non-invasive vascular laboratory at Mount Sinai St. Luke’s. Dr. Benvenisty is also the Site Chief of Surgery at Mount Sinai Morningside. While Dr. Benvenisty brings a conservative approach to treatment and intervention, he is also a specialist in renal transplant surgery and holds considerable experience in carotid, aneurysm and limb (salvage) bypass surgery. With intentional and personalized patient care, Dr. Benvenisty’s philosophy regarding treatment is that every patient and circumstance is unique. For patients suffering from renal failure, kidney disease, blood clots, aneurysms and other vascular illnesses, Dr. Benvenisty works to provide the least invasive treatment plan, using non-surgical options when possible.
“I have enjoyed the ability to bring my expertise in vascular surgery to enhance my care of my kidney patients, and that has been an especially rewarding part of my career.”
