Dr Gropper is a board-certified Diagnostic & Interventional Radiologist. Before undertaking his medical training, Dr. Gropper was an engineer at General Dynamics Corporation, working on various projects including cruise missile guidance systems, “Star Wars” strategic defense simulations, and others. He is a lifelong “techie,” and has always been an early adopter and innovator of new technologies in treating vascular problems with minimally invasive approaches.
Dr. Gropper received his M.D. from Emory University, where he also completed his residency and fellowship training in Vascular & Interventional Radiology. He has been practicing in Florida since 1999. He has served as an Associate Professor at FIU Medical School and recently retired from his position as Chief of Radiology at Jackson North Medical Center after 10 years of service.
It has been Dr. Gropper’s lifelong dream to have his own office-based practice where he could spend plenty of time taking care of his patients in a high tech, patient-centered atmosphere of his own design. He created Vivid Vascular to do exactly that. With his new state-of-the-art cath lab, he has been able to provide complete care by being able to perform procedures in his areas of expertise in the office, ensuring the best and most comfortable care for each patient. He has performed thousands of vascular procedures on the arterial and venous systems, and has many years of experience in uterine fibroid embolization and pelvic pain issues, interventional oncology, biopsies, spine interventions and dialysis interventions.
“It’s been so rewarding to build this state-of-the-art practice centered around my patients’ needs,” said Dr. Gropper. “I love seeing my patients walk out the door happy and healthier.”
Dr. Gropper and his wife Kari live in Miami Shores. They have three children and spend their leisure time boating, fishing, snow skiing and traveling.

Dr. Groper and his staff are amazing! I've been going to this office for 9 months for varicose vein treatments. My veins were extremely noticeable and very bad and now practically gone! I still have more work to be done but I am extremely pleased with my results. Roxy and Jenny Watson have also been extremely friendly, professional, and accommodating during my visits! I definitely recommend vivid vascular for anyone seeking vein treatments.

I had large veins under my eyes and on my temple area that were difficult to conceal, and always made me looked tired. Dr. Groper treated them with a laser and I couldn’t be happier. The procedure was very simple, quick, and I had no downtime. I would highly recommend Vivid Face/Vivid Vascular.

Fantastic. Doctor Gropper is an excellent physician. The procedure was simple and painless. Great results. I have this done years ago by another physician. Painful and horrible results. The office and equipment were state-of-the-art. I could not recommend more highly.

Whether you are having vein work done by Dr. Gropper or facial enhancements at Vivid you will always get friendly, efficient treatment. I guarantee that you will be 100% satisfied. I came to Dr. Gropper because the varicose veins I had from my 20s on looked like Gordian knots and were adversely affecting my circulation and ability to walk. He not only eliminated the circulation problems but gave me legs even my wife calls "sexy"...and I'm a 73-year-old guy. Vivid can take years off of your facial appearance with safe laser and radiofrequency treatments. My wife has had fills done...again in the most professional environment I could imagine. Vivid Vascular is as good as it gets. Give them a try.
