Vein Institute ā Meridian

Meridian, MS 39301
Driving from Quitman: approx. 28 mi (about 35 min)
For Quitman residents dealing with vein concerns, the Vein Institute's Meridian location offers spider vein treatment in a relaxed, comfortable setting. Every visit starts with a one-on-one conversation with your provider about your specific symptoms and goals.
Minimally invasive treatment to reduce the visibility of small, thread-like veins on the legs and feet.
Dr. J. Keith Thompson most often treats spider veins with sclerotherapy, injecting a solution directly into the vein that causes it to collapse and gradually fade from view. Larger feeder (reticular) veins contributing to the spider veins can be addressed in the same series of treatments.

Quitman patients often come to the Vein Institute with one or more of these symptoms or questions about spider veins:
We keep the first visit simple ā check-in, then a conversation with your provider about your leg veins and any symptoms you're noticing. An ultrasound is frequently performed the same day, since it helps confirm whether venous insufficiency is contributing to your symptoms.
There is little to no downtime after sclerotherapy. Patients typically wear compression garments for a period after treatment and often need multiple sessions, spaced about three weeks apart, to reach the desired result.
From Quitman, our Meridian office is approx. 28 mi (about 35 min). We built the Vein Institute around a simple idea: patients deserve a comfortable, one-on-one conversation with their provider, not a rushed appointment. That's the experience Quitman patients can expect at Meridian.

Every patient's needs are different, but on average most patients require a minimum of 4ā6 sclerotherapy sessions.
