An apparatus for evaluating a vascular endothelial function, includes: a first cuff, to be wound around a first body part of a subject; a second cuff, to be wound around a second body part of the subject; a cuff pressure controller, configured to control a cuff pressure of each of the first and second cuffs, and configured to perform continuous pressure stimulation on the first body part of the subject for a time period by using the first cuff; a cuff pressure detector, configured to detect the cuff pressure of the second cuff from an output of a pressure sensor connected to the second cuff; a pulse wave detector, configured to detect, from the output of the pressure sensor, pulse waves before and after the continuous pressure stimulation is performed; and an analyzer, configured to evaluate the vascular endothelial function by comparing the pulse waves detected before and after the continuous pressure stimulation is performed.
