Varicose Vein Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my Doctor want to do an ultrasound evaluation of my legs?

Any complete evaluation of the venous system of the legs will include an ultrasound evaluation. This is the simplest, most accurate way for your provider to evaluate not only the condition of the large veins in the superficial system, but also the health of the deep vein system. This will help them design a treatment plan that will give you the best results and help ensure that there are no long term complications.
