ClariVein Treatment for Quitman, MS Patients
Patients from Quitman travel a short distance to our Meridian office for clarivein treatment. The Vein Institute is home to South Mississippi's only 100%, full-time, board-certified vein specialist, and we welcome patients from Quitman and nearby communities.
What Is ClariVein?
A non-thermal vein ablation option that closes a diseased vein using a rotating catheter and a medicated solution.
ClariVeinĀ® combines a rotating catheter with a medicated solution to close a diseased vein from the inside, without using heat. Dr. J. Keith Thompson offers ClariVein as one of several vein ablation options, chosen based on each patient's vein anatomy.

Who This Helps
Quitman patients often come to the Vein Institute with one or more of these symptoms or questions about clarivein:
- Varicose veins caused by a diseased vein that needs to be closed
- Patients who prefer a non-heat-based vein ablation option
How It Works & Recovery
Your visit begins with a straightforward check-in, followed by time with your provider to go over your symptoms and concerns. Most patients also have an ultrasound exam the same day, which helps confirm the diagnosis before any treatment is recommended.
Because no heat is used, some patients find ClariVein involves less local anesthetic than heat-based options. Most patients return to normal activity the same day.
