Varicose veins are swollen, twisted, blue colored vessels that bulge just under the skin. They usually develop in the legs and can form in other areas of the body as well. Spider veins are a visible cluster of small, red, blue, or purple vessels just below the skin surface that commonly appear on the thighs, ankles, and calves.
Varicose veins are recognized as a necessary medical condition by most health insurers. Depending on your policy and condition, your vein treatment may be a covered benefit. Our dedicated staff will work with your insurance company to verify your coverage and benefits.

Vascular Treatments
Sclerotherapy
Tiny needles are used to inject a solution directly into the vein. This solution irritates the lining of the blood vessel, causing it to collapse. Over time, the vessel turns into scar tissue that fades over time.
VenaSeal
The VenaSeal system delivers a small amount of a specially formulated medical adhesive to seal the diseased vein, rerouting blood to nearby healthy veins.
ClosureFast
A small incision is made to access the vein. A cathetar delivers radiofrequency energy to the vein wall, causing it to heat, collapse and seal shut. Once the diseased vein is closed, blood circulation is diverted to other healthy veins.
Microphlebectomy
Microphlebectomy is sometimes recommended to treat unsightly or painful leg veins close to the skin’s surface. With microphlebectomy, varicose veins are removed through small punctures, which leave virtually no scars.
