Microphlebectomy for Ellisville, MS Patients
Ellisville, MS is served by our Hattiesburg clinic, where our team offers microphlebectomy alongside in-office ultrasound diagnosis. Whether this is your first time seeking vein care or you've been managing symptoms for years, our goal is to make the process simple.
What Is Microphlebectomy?
A minimally invasive, in-office procedure to remove bulging varicose veins close to the skin's surface.
Microphlebectomy is a minimally invasive procedure used to remove bulging varicose veins that sit close to the surface of the skin. Through tiny, nearly invisible openings, Dr. J. Keith Thompson gently removes the damaged vein segments, allowing blood to naturally reroute through healthier veins.
