Center for Vein Restoration proudly serves the New York City metropolitan area with four offices: two in the upper New York City borough of the Bronx, one in bustling Downtown Brooklyn, and one in the nearby suburb of Scarsdale.
Dr. Kristine Cruz
Kristine Cruz, FACS, serves both Center for Vein Restoration’s Bronx offices. A 2002 graduate of Universidad Iberoamericana (Unibe), Dominican Republic, Dr. Cruz completed a medical internship in 2004 with Nassau University Medical Center in Long Island as well as a surgical internship with Stony Brook University Medical Center (SUNY) in 2005. Her residency was also at Stony Brook, where she was chief resident from 2008-09.
Following her laparoscopic surgery fellowship at St. Francis Hospital in Hartford, Connecticut, Dr. Cruz dedicated her career to treatments using minimally invasive techniques. In 2018, she joined Center for Vein Restoration, where she focuses solely on venous insufficiency. Dr. Cruz is board-certified by the American Board of Surgery and a member of the American College of Surgeons. She’s fluent in both Spanish and English.

Dr. Robin Huang
Dr. Robin Huang’s journey to venous medicine reflects his dedication to improving patients’ quality of life. After nearly two decades in acute care, trauma, and bariatric surgery, Robin Huang, MD, DABOM, DABS, was drawn to the immediate and lasting relief vein care provides.
Dr. Huang’s skills include minimally invasive procedures such as radiofrequency ablation, sclerotherapy, and phlebectomy. His patients appreciate his meticulous technique and compassionate bedside manner, which combine to reduce discomfort and achieve optimal outcomes.
Despite its urban location, the Bronx offers many sights for nature lovers. The borough is home to the world-famous Bronx Zoo, where exotic animals roam over 265 acres, and the New York Botanical Garden, a plant preserve and research park. For hikers, Bear Mountain State Park in Westchester County is dotted with miles of trails that allow city dwellers a nearby escape to the great outdoors.
Brooklyn, another bustling borough of New York City, offers its own blend of urban excitement and natural retreats. Prospect Park provides expansive lawns, tranquil waterways, and a welcoming zoo that delights visitors year-round. Adjacent to it is the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, known for its enchanting Cherry Esplanade and themed gardens that showcase stunning seasonal displays.
Scarsdale has a small-town charm without being too far away from the Big Apple. It is located approximately 25 miles from midtown Manhattan and is only a 30-minute ride away via the Metro-North Railroad.
The staff at Center for Vein Restoration will be with you every step of the way, from your first consultation to the day of your surgery and throughout your recovery. We treat each patient individually to ensure they receive the care they need to eliminate the pain of varicose veins and other venous disorders. We’re skilled in both minimally invasive surgical procedures and non-surgical methods to help our patients improve their vein health and live fuller lives.
