For Dr. Rema Malik, vascular surgery is more than restoring blood flow; it’s about restoring quality of life.
After nearly five years serving patients in Greater Houston, Malik opened Javed Vascular to build a practice centered on access, autonomy and individualized attention. While she continues operating at local HCA hospitals, her private practice allows her to personally guide every step of a patient’s care.
“I wanted to create something that really represented how I wanted to take care of patients,” Malik said. “Something bigger than myself—an institute that takes care of all vascular needs.”
Comprehensive vascular care
Javed Vascular focuses on diagnosing and treating complex circulation issues using minimally invasive and open surgical techniques.
Malik treats conditions including:
- Diabetic foot ulcers
- Peripheral arterial disease and circulation blockages
- Carotid artery disease
- Aortic aneurysms
- Dialysis access management
- Varicose veins and venous insufficiency
- Stroke and mini-stroke evaluation
For Malik, treating veins and arteries is only part of the story.
As she treated more vein-related conditions, Malik noticed patients wanted to feel as good as they looked—and look as good as they felt. That realization led her to expand into medical aesthetics.
“I view vascular surgery as both a science and an art,” Malik said. “People want their medical treatments, but they also want to feel confident.”
Medical aesthetic services offered:
- Sclerotherapy for spider veins
- Laser treatments
- Neurotoxins, such as Botox and other neuromodulators
- Dermal fillers and Sculptra
- Anti-aging and skin rejuvenation treatments
“Our training is in anatomy and physiology,” she said. “We understand the pros and cons of each treatment, what can go wrong, and how to fix it.”
A different kind of practice
A defining feature of Javed Vascular is simple: patients see Dr. Malik.
“There are no nurse practitioners or associates. It’s direct, personalized care,” Malik said.
She describes herself as a community surgeon, contracting with most major insurance plans to ensure broader access to care.
Beyond credentials, Malik believes her empathy sets the tone.
“I’ve been on the patient side myself,” she said. “I understand what it’s like to be in a vulnerable time. That brings a certain caring aspect to the care my patients receive.”
Whether addressing a life-threatening arterial blockage or refining subtle aesthetic concerns, her goal remains the same: thoughtful, comprehensive treatment tailored to the individual.
