Top Rated Vein Clinic in Phoenix

Elite Vein Clinic is the best!! I have struggled for years with vein issues, going to clinic after clinic with little to no results. I have seen visible and continued improvement with my vein issues. Dr. Nima, Jessica and his entire staff are top notch!!
This office is amazing. They gave me a last-minute appointment as a new patient. Front office helped me fill out. All forms Was helpful, very carefully explained all forms. The nurse practitioner took her time talked with me before they began any type of treatment. I would recommend this vein specialist to anybody and everybody that I knew and talk to thank you again.
I had some trepidation before visiting Elite Vein Clinic for an assesment. I was pleas a ntly surprised the process was thoroughly surprised with the friendly reception and knowledgeable personnel. Based on the findings during the assessment and discussion with the Elite Vein staff I decided to schedule four events (one per week). Having just completed the first treatment many of my concerns have been erased and I am confident that the remaining treatment session will go equally well. I have no reservations in recommending the Elite Vain Clinic.

Treatment for Varicose Veins

1. Symptoms Worsen Over Time

Vein disease is progressive, meaning its symptoms can become more severe over time and can result in serious issues.

2. Misdiagnosed

More than 30 million people are affected by varicose veins or CVI (Chronic Venous Insufficiency) in the U.S., with only 1.9 million seeking treatment annually, leaving the vast majority undiagnosed and untreated.

3. Easily Treated

The good news is that treatment is effective, often covered by insurance, and many patients see improvements in as little as a week.

Dr. Nima does a great job at making you feel comfortable in office, and explaining the treatment process in detail. I like that he takes the time to answer questions and sets expectations for both procedure and recovery time so there are no surprises. I would recommend a consult with him for anyone exploring first time treatment.

Answers for common vein questions

Frequently Asked Questions

In your leg, you have two sets of veins. They are called deep veins and superficial veins.

Deep veins are in the deeper part of the leg where the muscles are, and superficial veins are right under the skin.

In a normal person, the blood would circulate from the feet towards the heart in both sets of veins.

When someone has a venous insufficiency the blood will actually go up the deep veins and then go backwards into the superficial vein.

The blood will start pooling in the superficial veins.

Since the superficial veins are closest to the skin, they will start to bulge and create varicose veins. They are often bluish or purple in color.

Spider Veins are essentially a smaller version of varicose veins. They are red, purple, and blue vessels that are also twisted and turning. They are most often seen on the legs, chest, or face.

No. Varicose veins can occur deeper in the leg, where one can’t see them. Varicose veins are classified under the spectrum of venous insufficiency disease.

Venous insufficiency disease causes leg discomfort, swelling of the ankles and leg, itching, and weariness. Other signs and symptoms may be prickling, cramping, aching, and heaviness of the lower limbs after prolonged standing.

Keep an eye out for these symptoms besides simply visible veins.

In short, no. Exercise and compression stockings may help reduce some of the symptoms of varicose veins, but usually only medical treatment can effectively get rid of a varicose vein.

Progression of varicose veins can be dangerous as they may later become venous ulcerations. When left without treatment, complications may ensure including rashes, infections, bleeding, sores, and blood clots.

In rare cases, varicose veins can cause deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism which is life-threatening.
