What We Do

Modern medicine allows for the treatment of varicose veins within specialty centers like vein clinics using minimally invasive procedures.

What Is a Vein Clinic?

A vein clinic is a specialized medical center that focuses on diagnosing and treating vein conditions, such as spider and varicose veins. In the past, patients suffering from vein disease were typically treated in a hospital setting, where ligation and stripping (surgical removal) of the unhealthy vein was a common practice. Vein clinics offer minimally invasive treatments that require little to no downtime.

Why Visit a Vein Clinic?

The veins in your body play a crucial role in circulation, responsible for carrying blood back to the heart. However, when the valves in the veins are unhealthy, blood flow can be partially reversed, leading to blood pooling in the legs instead of being carried to the heart. This condition is known as venous insufficiency or vein disease and can be caused by various factors such as family history, age, blood clots, and pregnancy. Symptoms of vein insufficiency include leg pain, swelling, night cramps, heaviness in the legs, eczema, spider veins, and varicose veins. If left untreated, vein insufficiency can lead to more severe conditions affecting the skin's integrity, including changes in skin color and ulceration.

What to Expect During Your Visit

When you visit a vein clinic, you will be evaluated by a highly qualified vein specialist, also known as a phlebologist, who has a background in vascular medicine and maintains board certifications in vascular surgery, cardiology, or the American Board of Vascular and Lymphatic Medicine (ABVLM). A vein clinic without a board-certified vascular specialist should be further evaluated.

After reviewing your medical history and performing a physical exam, a technician may perform a vascular ultrasound to check for vein insufficiency. Most reputable vein clinics have a team of registered vascular sonographers, with lead technicians certified by the American Registry for Diagnostic Medical Sonographers (ARDMS).

Our Team of Experts

At reputable vein clinics, a team of experienced vascular sonographers is typically on staff, with the lead technicians registered with the American Registry for Diagnostic Medical Sonographers (ARDMS). A registered vascular technologist (RVT) credential further raises the standard of vascular ultrasound practice. By earning this credential, sonographers demonstrate the skills and knowledge required to provide consistent and reliable exams for evaluating vein disease. Our vein clinics are staffed with a team of experts dedicated to providing exceptional care for your vein health. After reviewing the results of your testing, our vein specialist physician will discuss the best treatment options for your specific condition.

She has the distinction of working in one of the most recognized vein clinics in the world for the past decade under the mentorship of specialized Doctor Luis Navarro. Having dedicated her career to treating vein insufficiency, spider veins, and varicose veins, she has helped countless patients alleviate symptoms and feel great about their legs again.

Treatment Options

Specialized vein clinics offer various treatment options for both medical and cosmetic conditions. Our most popular treatments are as follows.

Vein Ablation

Endovenous ablation treats larger, bulging veins using radiofrequency or laser energy, which effectively closes the varicose vein.

Sclerotherapy

Sclerotherapy consists of a series of injections containing a sclerosant solution to treat the smaller spider veins at the skin's surface.

Foam Sclerotherapy

Ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy is used to treat varicose veins that can’t be treated with ablation.

Phlebectomy

Phlebectomy is a highly effective method to manage large, bulky varicose veins for immediate resolution.

Our vein specialist physician will collaborate with you to determine the best treatment option for your unique needs. A personalized approach to treatment is associated with higher levels of patient satisfaction and better outcomes.
