Who This Helps
Waynesboro patients often come to the Vein Institute with one or more of these symptoms or questions about vein specialist:
- Vein concerns that haven't improved with a general practitioner
- A need for board-certified, vein-specific expertise before treatment
How It Works & Recovery
Your first visit starts with check-in — no stack of forms to fill out — followed by a one-on-one conversation with your provider about your symptoms. Many patients also have an ultrasound the same day to help identify which veins are involved, so a treatment plan can be discussed right away.
Patients benefit from a provider whose practice is dedicated to vein care, supported by a clinical team that includes a Certified Vascular Sonographer and a Nurse Practitioner trained in sclerotherapy.

Our clinical team includes a double board-certified vascular surgeon, a Certified Vascular Sonographer with more than 18 years of vein ultrasound experience, and a Nurse Practitioner trained directly by Dr. Thompson in sclerotherapy — all focused exclusively on vein care.
