- Varicose veins, spider veins, or other vein disease symptoms needing an expert evaluation
How It Works & Recovery
At your consultation, you'll meet with your provider to talk through your symptoms and history. If an ultrasound is needed to map the affected veins, our Certified Vascular Sonographer can often perform it during the same visit, and you'll be given a treatment plan based on the results.
