Specializes in Vascular Surgery

See vascular surgeon: Difficult to give you a complete answer without examination of your legs. Vascular surgeon would be the best person to see and treat you. Have an ultrasound first to examine for vein reflux. Most common therapy is vein ablation through an IV in the vein in the doctors office, followed by possible sclerotherapy or phlebectomies. Results usually great and disccomfort minimal. See vein specialist.
