Diagnosis and Treatment of Venous Diseases

Venous disease currently affects over half of the U.S. population and is most common in women and people over fifty. Of those affected, only 10 to 15 percent of men and 20 to 25 percent of women will show visible symptoms in the form of spider or varicose veins. Non-visible symptoms include itching, burning, swelling, and/or a general feeling of heaviness or discomfort in the legs, symptoms that often get progressively worse throughout the day. A number of factors can increase a person’s risk for developing venous disease, including heredity, age, gender, obesity, pregnancy, and whether a person’s job requires them to sit or stand for prolonged periods of time.

Vein and Vascular Imaging Used In Office

Venous Ultrasound

Exam of venous circulation used to detect venous insufficiency, reflux patterns, and deep venous thrombosis concerns.

Arterial Ultrasound

Assessment of arterial blood flow used to identify plaque, stenosis, or reduced circulation in peripheral vessels.

Abdominal Ultrasound

Noninvasive abdominal vascular and organ-focused imaging used for targeted diagnostic assessment when clinically indicated.

Renal Ultrasound

Kidney and renal artery-focused ultrasound to evaluate anatomy and potential vascular contributors to hypertension or dysfunction.

Carotid Ultrasound

Ultrasound of carotid arteries to detect plaque and narrowing, helping with stroke risk assessment and treatment planning.

Care Planning and Safety

Treatment recommendations are based on symptoms, exam findings, and diagnostic imaging.

Plans may include conservative management, office-based vein procedures, or referral for additional specialty care.

For urgent chest pain, severe shortness of breath, or stroke symptoms, call 911 immediately.
