Once our team determines an accurate diagnosis, we fully explain all of the available treatment options so you can make informed decisions.

Vascular Solutions also offers cosmetic care, including free consultations. During a 15-minute cosmetic consultation, we examine the areas of concern and provide an overview of aesthetic options. We also offer a free consultation combined with same-day treatment using sclerotherapy or noninvasive laser light therapy.

If you’re not sure if you have a vein problem and who want to talk with an expert about your leg pain or other symptoms, Vascular Solutions offers free vein screening appointments. We briefly review each person’s symptoms, examine your legs, and determine if you need a new patient evaluation or cosmetic services.
