More About Dr. Anderson

After experiencing the discomfort of chronic venous insufficiency firsthand, Dr. Anderson turned his professional focus to venous disease—diagnosing and treating venous disease using advanced, office-based techniques.

“I had symptomatic varicose veins myself, which were relieved with minimally invasive procedures. Thus, as a Vascular Surgeon, it made perfect sense for me to take care of patients with vein disease and similar problems.” – Robert J. Anderson, MD, RVT, RPVI
