Diagnostics:
Treatment:
Exceptional diagnostics lead to outstanding treatment. Our very experienced ultrasonographer,
Vida Savickiene, MD, RVT, has years of experience in venous imaging. We use the best and most modern
equipment available, the GE Logiq ultrasound system. Lesser equipment “fails to see” the entire hemodynamic
problem. What you don’t see really can hurt you.
Treatment recommendations are based on each individual’s diagnosis and preference. We do not offer surgery.
More effective and safer treatments are now available. Pain is minimal and return to normal activities is rapid.
Ultrasound Guided Foam Sclerotherapy: (Also called “endovenous chemical ablation”): Developed to replace
surgery, this method is highly evolved and it works! Used for very large varicose veins, Dr. Eaton’s new protocol
requires significantly fewer treatment sessions than previously required.
Thermal (Heat) Ablation: New, safer and more effective treatments are rapidly replacing the traditional “stripping”
surgery. We use two different techniques, laser (CoolTouch® Laser) or radio-frequency (VNUS ClosureFast®)
instead of stripping. Offering these two techniques assures that you have the best treatment for your particular
condition, and that your chance of pain following the treatment is extremely small.
Important: One must understand that these techniques alone are not enough to correct the very complex hemodynamic pathology of varicose vein disease. Nearly everyone needs a combination and series of treatments to eliminate the pain and return the circulation to normal.
Services
Experience Matters: No matter how massive or complex your veins may be, no one “needs” surgery for vein disease! We have
the education, knowledge and experience to get results. Please, if you have consulted elsewhere, at least see us for a “second
opinion”. You will find it valuable. We promise.♥

Traditional Sclerotherapy: Popular for many years to treat spider veins, we use the appropriate medication
to treat the larger veins that cause spider veins, as well as the spider veins. We never use saline solution
because of its significant limitations and pain.
Varicose Vein Problems
Symptoms: Include leg heaviness, fatigue, aching, throbbing, itching, numbness, restlessness, and muscle cramps.
Restless Leg Syndrome: Years ago, Dr. Brian McDonagh discovered the cause and treatment for most cases of RLS.
Long considered a neurological disorder, RLS is usually the result of varicose veins. The use of recycled Parkinson’s
drugs to treat RLS only suppresses symptoms. Sclerotherapy can eliminate the syndrome!
Findings: Swollen legs. Brown discoloration of the skin. Eruption of small veins around the knees, calves or ankles.
Skin rashes that are red, rough, bumpy and itch. Hardening of the skin near the ankles. Bleeding and open sores.
Varicose veins Varicose veins can cause many health problems. They are not only cosmetic. They result in the
backward flow of blood; this can lead to blood clots, swollen leg, leg ulcers, dermatitis and symptoms that adversely
affect the quality of everyday life.
Leg Ulcers: Venous ulcers are common, misunderstood, and improperly treated. They can result from blood clots, or
from simple varicose veins. We know how to diagnose the underlying cause of leg ulcers and, most often, offer the best
and most rapid treatment for cure by correcting the underlying cause.
Blood Clots: It is estimated that there are more death due to blood clots than due to HIV AIDS and breast cancer
combined. Varicose veins puts one at 6 times the risk for blood clots. We understand blood clots and offer preventive
treatments and management for those who have suffered from blood clots.
