Massoud Arbabzadeh, MD
Interventional Radiologist and Medical Director of Community Vascular Institute — a top vascular clinic in Garden Grove, Orange County, CA.

Experienced. Precise. Personal.
Massoud Arbabzadeh, MD is an interventional radiologist and the physician behind Community Vascular Institute in Garden Grove, California. He has more than twenty years of experience in interventional radiology and endovascular medicine, with a focus on peripheral artery disease, venous disease and varicose veins, dialysis access and minimally invasive, image-guided procedures.
Interventional radiologists use real-time imaging — ultrasound, X-ray (fluoroscopy) and angiography — to guide tiny catheters and wires through blood vessels. This lets Dr. Arbabzadeh open blocked arteries, close faulty veins and treat inflamed joints through a pinhole-sized entry point instead of a surgical incision.
Patients describe his style as calm, thorough and straightforward. He takes time to explain what the ultrasound shows, walks through each option, and recommends a procedure only when it is likely to make a meaningful difference in symptoms, mobility or limb health.
