Get Vascular Surgery Done in Alaska During COVID-19

Vascular problems such as varicose veins and vascular ulcers have painful symptoms that need to be addressed. And while treatment may not be an emergency, ignoring vascular problems can lead to more serious conditions such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT). You can still get treatment for vein disease today in Alaska without exposing yourself to the risks of COVID-19. The Center for Vein Restoration has a vascular surgeon available right now for those in need of procedures such as sclerotherapy.

Enjoy a Private Appointment With Our Vascular Surgeon and Staff

Sitting in a crowded waited room is not recommended during the current pandemic. But the symptoms of vein disease need treatment because they range from uncomfortable to painful. They typically affect the legs and may include:

• Swelling
• Burning
• Itching
• Throbbing
• Cramping

If left untreated, vein disorders such as spider or varicose veins can lead to more serious ulcers. Ulcers appear as painful sores, usually around your legs and ankles. They often take a long time to heal, and may pose a risk of infection.

If you need treatment for vein disease in Alaska, there's no need to suffer. The Center for Vein Restoration offers one-on-one appointments that won't leave you waiting in a crowded room full of patients. Don't put yourself and your loved ones at risk by seeking treatment at a medical center or local emergency room. Make a private appointment with our vascular surgeon instead. We'll get you in and out without putting you in contact with others who are experiencing the symptoms associated with COVID-19 such as dry cough and labored breathing.

We understand how uncertain the future may seem right now, and we're doing all we can to help. Therefore, when you schedule an appointment with our vascular surgeon for vein treatment during the pandemic, we'll waive your insurance copay.

Resist the Urge to Delay Treatment for Vein Disease

Waiting to treat the serious symptoms of vein disease puts you at greater medical risk. Chronic venous insufficiency is more than just a cosmetic problem. It also puts you at greater risk of life-threatening conditions such as deep vein thrombosis. Patients who suffer from chronic venous insufficiency have a vascular problem that prevents blood from returning from the legs to the heart. Instead, the blood pools inside the veins of the legs, causing swelling and discoloration. In severe cases, blood clots can form, causing a life-threatening condition known as DVT.
