What you don’t know about vein disease: According to the Society of Interventional Radiology, approximately half of the U.S. population has venous disease, about 55 percent of women and 45 percent of men. However, only 25 percent of women and 15 percent of men will have visible varicose veins. This demonstrates that many individuals are suffering lifestyle limiting symptoms of vein disease and do not even know it.
Read a testimonial about Sibel Alkan’s experience at Vein911:
“I am a retail manager for Wal-Mart, which requires me being on my feet the majority of my workday. I had been experiencing some pain in my legs but that was not why I initially went to Vein911. I went to seek their cosmetic treatment for my spider veins. When I was first examined, they felt from observation my problem might be more medical than cosmetic and recommended me to have an ultrasound to make a determination.
I was scheduled for the ultrasound, which indeed revealed I had some reflux in my veins and that was likely what was causing the pain. Dr. Pittman recommended that I have a laser procedure, followed by sclerotherapy foam treatment. I had my left leg done first and followed the protocol after the procedure of wearing the compression hose and have done very well with a quick recovery and very little discomfort afterwards.
I do not like to go to doctors and was very, very nervous but Dr. Pittman and all the staff at Vein911 made me feel like family, which helped me to be calm and feel very comfortable. I did not experience pain during the laser procedure. I now know what to expect when I go in to get the right leg done so I expect it will be even easier.
Vein911 was recommended to me by a friend and I have recommended Dr. Pittman and Vein911 to a couple of my friends too who are having leg pain issues. I’ve told them Vein911 is the “best place to go”. The whole Vein911 team is terrific and truly makes it a very pleasant experience.”
