Comprehensive Vascular Care

Comprehensive Vein Disease Treatment

Cardiologists of Greene County now offers advanced vascular services to treat venous reflux and chronic venous insufficiency (CVI). If you're experiencing varicose veins, tired and aching legs, these could be signs of vein disease that requires professional treatment.

There exists an underrecognized, but highly treatable condition that affects many of our patients. It's called Chronic Venous Insufficiency (CVI). CVI can present with symptoms that overlap with other conditions, particularly heart failure, making timely diagnosis essential.

CVI results from venous valve dysfunction, leading to blood pooling in the legs. Common symptoms include:

Leg swelling, heaviness, or aching
Varicose veins or skin discoloration
Nocturnal cramping or restlessness
Slow-healing ulcers, especially near the ankles

As a cardiologist experienced in venous disease, we offer comprehensive evaluation and minimally invasive venous ablation procedures tailored to each patient.

These treatments effectively close refluxing veins and restore normal venous flow. We also perform cardiac assessments when symptoms may be cardiac in origin.

VenaSeal Closure System

The VenaSeal closure system is a minimally invasive treatment that uses a medical adhesive to close diseased veins. This innovative procedure seals the vein shut, redirecting blood flow to healthy veins. VenaSeal offers patients the convenience of no compression stockings required after treatment and allows for immediate return to normal activities.

Benefits:

No thermal energy required
Minimal discomfort during the procedure
No compression stockings needed post-treatment
Quick recovery time
Excellent cosmetic results

ClosureFast Radiofrequency Ablation

ClosureFast is a minimally invasive procedure that uses radiofrequency energy to heat and close diseased veins. This outpatient treatment effectively treats venous reflux by sealing the problematic vein, allowing blood to reroute through healthier veins.

Benefits:

Minimally invasive outpatient procedure
Local anesthesia only
Less bruising compared to traditional surgery
High success rates
Covered by most insurance plans

Varithena is an FDA-approved injectable foam treatment for varicose veins and chronic venous insufficiency. This sclerosant foam displaces blood in the vein and treats the vessel walls, causing the vein to collapse and seal shut.

Benefits:

Non-surgical treatment option
Treats multiple veins in one session
Effective for tortuous veins
Minimal downtime
Proven clinical results

Varithena Sclerotherapy

Compression Therapy

Medical compression therapy is often the first line of treatment for venous insufficiency. Graduated compression stockings apply controlled pressure to the legs, helping improve circulation and reduce symptoms of vein disease.

Benefits

Non-invasive treatment option
Reduces swelling and discomfort
Prevents progression of vein disease
Can be used alone or with other treatments
Available in various styles and compression levels

Signs and Symptoms of Venous Reflux

Venous reflux can cause these signs and symptoms:

Common Symptoms:

Varicose veins
Swelling in legs and ankles
Itching around affected veins
Heaviness or tiredness in legs
Aching or cramping pain
Restless legs
Open skin sores (in advanced cases)

If venous reflux is left untreated, it may worsen over time and develop into a more serious form of vein disease called chronic venous insufficiency, or CVI. Early intervention can prevent progression and improve your quality of life.

Benefits:

Relief from painful symptoms
Improved leg appearance
Enhanced quality of life
Prevention of disease progression
Quick return to normal activities

We provide a full range of vascular diagnostic services designed to detect and manage conditions affecting arteries, veins, and lymphatic vessels. These services are essential for identifying blockages, blood clots, aneurysms, and circulation issues before they lead to serious complications.

Our diagnostic capabilities include:

Advanced Ultrasound Imaging

Doppler & Duplex Ultrasounds for evaluating blood flow and vessel health
Specialized exams: Carotid, arterial (upper/lower limbs), venous duplex, abdominal aorta, renal artery, and more
Safe, noninvasive, and accurate testing

Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) Testing

A simple, noninvasive screening for Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD)
Helps detect narrowing or blockages in the leg arteries

CT Angiography (CTA) and MR Angiography (MRA) for detailed vascular mapping
Catheter-based angiograms for high-precision vascular assessmentRelief from painful symptoms

Advanced Imaging

Why Vascular Diagnostics Matter

Early Detection Saves Lives: Timely identification of vascular issues can prevent heart attacks, strokes, kidney failure, or limb loss.
Tailored Treatment Plans: Accurate imaging guides decisions for medication, lifestyle changes, minimally invasive procedures, or surgery.

We welcome new patients and referrals and are committed to timely and collaborative care. Whether for screening or follow-up evaluation, our vascular team is here to ensure every patient receives high-quality, individualized attention.
