Dr. Cassada is board certified in Surgery and Vascular Surgery. After earning his medical degree from University of Virginia Health System, he received additional training through a General Surgery internship at University of Tennessee. He also accomplished two Residencies in Vascular Surgery and General Surgery at University of Tennessee, followed by two fellowships in Vascular surgery at the University of Virginia. He loves caring for the Lynchburg community because he was born and raised in SW Virginia and it feels like he returned to home.
