Congratulations to Dr. Ives on His Retirement

Because we value our patients and pride ourselves in the continuity of care, we want to share important news with you.
After decades of dedication to helping patients with venous and lymphatic disorders (vein disease) look and feel their best, Don Ives, MD, DABVLM, RPVI, RVT, is retiring from our Fairbanks and Anchorage, Alaska, locations.
CVR is grateful to Dr. Ives for building a culture focused on the patient and always striving to deliver the most favorable clinical outcomes. He has helped thousands of patients live their best lives—comfortably.
And while we are sad that he is leaving his day-to-day duties in Alaska, we are happy that he will have the opportunity to pursue the new adventures that await him. CVR wishes him all the best.
