How we treat vein conditions

Treatment for vein conditions may include:

A minimally invasive procedure that treats poor circulation of blood in the leg, a condition called venous reflux or insufficiency. Left untreated, varicose veins and other more serious vascular conditions may develop.

An injection treatment used to eliminate spider veins and reticular veins. Sclerotherapy is a cosmetic vein procedure, and is not a covered benefit through your insurance provider.

Varithena™ microfoam is an alternative form of non-surgical venous ablation that can be performed in the office without the need for any anesthesia.

Your diagnosis or prognosis is unclear
You’ve been told you have a rare or life-threatening condition
You would like to explore other treatment options
Your treatment options are costly or risky
You want to hear an opinion from another specialist
Your insurance requires a second opinion
