4 Steps to Selecting the Best Vein Clinic for Your Needs

Blog Author April 6, 2016
So you’ve decided it’s time to get treatment for your unsightly varicose veins or spider veins, eliminating the ugly appearance as well as symptoms like pain, itching, burning and limb fatigue that can go hand-in-hand with untreated vein disease. Your next consideration: How to make sure you choose the right vein clinic for your care and treatment.

Choosing the Best Florida Vein Clinic for Your Needs

Selecting a vein clinic is extremely important; after all, your circulatory health depends on you receiving the most qualified and skilled care possible, as well as plenty of other factors. But do you know what to look for when selecting a great vein clinic? Here are four factors to consider:
  1. The vein doctors are board-certified, skilled and experienced. Your doctor’s own experience and expertise are a major factor in the success of your treatment, so choosing a facility with doctors who have that experience is, of course, a top priority. During your consultation appointment, ask your doctor about his or her experience in successfully treating patients with similar issues so you can get a feel for the doctor’s “bedside manner” and communication skills as well; after all, you want a doctor with whom you feel comfortable discussing your concerns.
  2. The vein clinic offers different types of vein treatment for a better range of options. More treatment options means your care can be truly customized for your needs. Avoid clinics that seem to promote or “push” one option over another instead of promoting individualized care based on each patient’s unique needs.
  3. Be sure the clinic offers a full range of diagnostic options as well, including Doppler ultrasound, and ask if they provide complete vein care, including followup and preventive care to help you avoid problems in the future.
  4. Look for a clinic that offers a free consultation so you can understand your care needs upfront and well before any treatment recommendations are made. A clinic that offers weekend and evening hours is also important for your schedule, and it shows the clinic is mindful of its patient’s needs and busy lifestyles.
