What makes your vein doctors so special?

The specialists on our site have been carefully selected by our board of medical doctors. We have confiremd that these varicose vein and spider vein doctors have had the proper training and experience to provide the best possible evaluation of your vein problem and the best possible treatment for varicose veins and spider veins.


Are the varicose vein doctors and spider veins doctors board-certified?

THERE IS NO BOARD CERTIFICATION IN PHLEBOLOGY!

The American College of Phlebology now offers an internal board certification for doctors who have taken and passed their examination which is an excellent indication of a clinician's academic training.

Just because a doctor is board-certified in plastic surgery or dermatology or even vascular surgery doesn't necesarily mean they will be the best to treat your spider veins and varicose veins non-surgically (medically). A doctor needs extra training in the field of Phlebology to learn the techniques needed to evaluate your vein problem. And a doctor needs the right training and experience to offer an effective safe treatment using the various non-surgical methods to treat vein disease.


Can a nurse treat my varicose veins or spider veins?

While most patients prefer to go to a doctor for their evaluation and treatment, the reality is that there are many well trained and experienced nurses, nurse practitioners, and physician's assistants that can provide safe and effective treatment under a  vein doctor's supervision.

Most non-physician clinicians can treat your spider veins, but these clinicians will also always have a supervising doctor as required by the laws of your state.


Are the pictures of varicose vein and spider vein results on your website real?

All the pictures of varicose veins and spider veins on our site are actual patients of the clinician. They are un-retouched by us and posted exactly as we recieved them.


Does everyone need an ultrasound exam for their varicose veins and spider veins?

Every patient who presents with a varicose vein should have an ultrasound evaluation performed. This is necessary for both safety purposes and to help determine what treatment type would work best for you:

Sclerotherapy Endovenous Laser Ablation Radio Frequency ablation-Closure
Ambulatory Phlebectomy   Surgery-Vein Ligation and Stripping

While most patients who present with spider vein disease should be thoroughly evaluated by physical exam and ultrasound, not everyone with spider veins needs an ultrasound. Your doctor can guide you as to why you may need an ultrasound.
