Vein Diseases We Treat
Varicose Veins These are large, “rope-like” veins that are often 1/4” or larger in diameter. Varicose veins generally grow in size over time and can result in substantial pain and complications if not treated. With the advent of the most current state-of-the-art medical treatments, there is simply no reason to tolerate this disfiguring condition.
Spider Veins These are small, thread-like colored veins that are most often seen in the surface of the skin. While many people seek treatment for spider veins for cosmetic reasons, spider veins also can result in substantial discomfort requiring therapy.
Chronic Venus Stasis This is a more advanced stage of chronic venous disease. Patients present with leg swelling, pigmentation, induration of the tissues under the skin and ulceration. This pathology may be the result of previous episodes of phlebitis in the deep veins (DVT) or it may be due to failure of valves of the superficial, deep or perforating venous system to close properly.
