A devoted, passionate patient health advocate and educator, Dr. Lindner Cogan has 20 years of medical experience.

Dr. Lindner Cogan spent the first eight years of her medical career as a minimally invasive surgeon, practicing in women’s health. During this time, she witnessed first-hand the burden of varicose vein disease for women related to pregnancy.
A known risk factor for varicose veins, the powerful pregnancy hormone progestin, as well as the expanding uterus, make it harder for the lower leg veins to circulate blood up to the heart. The blood pools in the legs and feet, causing swelling and varicose veins. Often these pregnancy-related varicose veins resolve within a few months after delivery. However, if varicose veins persist after pregnancy, Dr. Lindner Cogan offers minimally invasive treatment options that fit into a busy mom’s schedule.
As her interest in vascular medicine grew, she pursued vein care as a specialty and has spent a decade treating both men and women with vein disease.
