Depends on hospital: Many areas of medicine and surgery overlap with several physicians able to provide a similar service. Who ultimately performs vascular surgery on the hand depends on the individual hospital and how that referral pattern evolved over time, but both hand surgeons and vascular surgeons are qualified and trained to perform these types of operations.
