General Info
Dr. Wengerter has practiced in the field of vascular surgery for over 20 years in both academic and private practice settings. He is a former Chief of Vascular Surgery at Albert Einstein College Hospital in NYC, and has served as Vascular Lab Director in three academic institutions. He trained and worked with Dr. Frank Veith, the renowned vascular surgeon at Montefiore Hospital in NYC where he served as an Associate Professor. He is an author on nearly 50 research papers and 25 textbook chapters and has presented over 30 invited lectures at local, national and international meetings. In 2013, he served as President of the Vascular Society of New Jersey and has actively participated in training over 20 Fellows in Vascular Surgery. He served as a volunteer Vascular Surgeon in 2011 at the Landstuhl US Army Hospital in Germany. Since completing his training, Dr. Wengerter has performed over 1000 reconstructive bypass and endovascular procedures to save circulation-compromised limbs. Much of his career has been devoted to this area of practice. Dr. Wengerter has led the advanced use of newer endovascular techniques of atherectomy and stent placement at Englewood to reduce the need for open surgery to save limbs. Dr. Wengerter has also been involved in the advancement of catheter-based endovascular techniques for aortic aneurysm repair and participated in the initial application of these procedures both at Montefiore and Englewood. He also performed the first purely percutaneous (through a skin puncture) repair of an aortic aneurysm at Englewood, avoiding skin incisions completely. Over the past 15 years Dr. Wengerter has worked closely with the renal service at Englewood Hospital to apply endovascular and surgical techniques to the care of vascular access for dialysis patients.

Reviews
Saved my sister's life we are very thankful.
Overall, Nathan is pleased with Dr. Wengerter's service. He will explain the changes he's made with his meds that have eliminated his overall cramping.
Dr Wengerter is a physician who truly cares about his patients. I know I am fortunate to have him as my physician. Two years ago he diagnosed a very rare condition that I have. I had seen many physicians that could not pinpoint the issue. He diagnosed me with Mae turner syndrome. A condition many physicians aren't even aware of. He inserted stents and restored the circulation to my legs. Without Dr Wengurter, I could have had a very different outcome.
He takes the time to explain well the procedure he will perform and also follow up tests and shows and discusses results with family members.
professional atmosphere and truly pleasant environment.
I have been seeing Dr. Wengerter for 3 years now for my vascular condition and he is just wonderful! He takes care of me like family and thanks to him I'm doing very well!
positive surgical outcome
Dr. W explained everything so that it was easy to understand. Dr. W also did not mind answering my many questions.
Dr. Wengerter is personable and knowledgeable
His medical assistant Tatiana is very nice and efficient.
Everything you'd expect in your doctor and more. Knowledgeable, helpful, compassionate, courteous and he even listens! Highest praise for Doctor Wengerter and staff.
