Reaching a New Milestone

On September 13th, 2024, our Vascular team performed their 100th vein ablation. Venous ablation is a minimally invasive, outpatient treatment option to treat patients suffering from pain, heaviness, swelling, itching, throbbing, cosmetically unappealing or uncomfortable legs from varicose veins or chronic venous insufficiency. During the procedure, a catheter is inserted into the diseased vein and causes the vein to close down. Blood then naturally re-routes to other healthy veins once the diseased vein is closed.

We are honored to have Dr. Zain Ahmed lead our Vascular Center. He is an interventional cardiologist who specializes in coronary and peripheral vascular interventions.
