Is it time to get a second opinion?

One way to take control of your own vein health (and overall health) is to seek a second opinion.

Second opinions are common in the field of medicine, including the area of vein health. In fact, second opinions are an essential part of effective diagnosis and treatment of venous disease.

In recent years, there have been many new developments in the treatment of varicose veins and other vein problems, and some doctors may not be familiar with minimally invasive treatment options, such as ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy, or endovenous laser ablation (EVLA).

If you have been told that there is no treatment for your venous symptoms-- or, if you have been told that your venous condition will resolve itself without any intervention-- you may be a good candidate for a second opinion.
