More About Dr. Hafizi
After medical school graduation, Dr. Hafizi completed a 4-year training in obstetrics and gynecology, practicing as an OB/GYN for over twenty years in Northern Virginia. Following her passion for caring for people with chronic diseases and her interest in surgery, she trained extensively with Center for Vein Restoration.

She chooses to practice at CVR specifically, citing CVR’s status, nationally and internationally, for research, training, and using cutting-edge technologies in modern outpatient facilities.
“I feel that patient care requires listening to the patient and giving them adequate, kind care that emphasizes communication and educating them, so they know what to expect.”
