Saginaw, Michigan

Center for Vein Restoration now has nine clinics in Michigan, with the addition of our branch in Saginaw. Each clinic is led by a board-certified physician whose speciality is treating people with vascular disorders such as varicose veins and spider veins.

We understand the swelling and pain of varicose veins can interfere with your quality of life. That’s why we’ve made it our mission to offer the best in vein care available. You no longer have to live with the discomfort of varicose veins.

Center for Vein Restoration in Saginaw offers a full spectrum of varicose vein treatments, from compression stocking therapy to minimally invasive, in-office surgical procedures. All have been proven effective over many years in eliminating varicose veins and spider veins. Sclerotherapy, for example, is considered the gold standard of care for varicose veins and spider veins. The procedure uses a safe solution to seal the damaged vein so blood flows to healthy veins.

Varicose veins can also be treated with thermal therapy. Endovenous laser ablation collapses the affected veins using heat from a laser attached to a thin catheter. Radiofrequency ablation uses heat from radiofrequency waves to destroy the damaged vein. Large varicose veins benefit from ambulatory phlebotomy in which the vein is removed through two tiny incisions.

Our physicians are also experts in newer vein care treatments, such as VenaSeal, Varithena, and ClariVein. VenaSeal uses a proprietary medical adhesive to close off varicose veins, no anesthesia is required. Varithena is a minimally-invasive, non-surgical procedure using a microfoam injection into affected veins, collapsing the vein. Blood is redirected to healthy vessels. ClariVein is a minimally invasive treatment option using a mechanochemical ablation device. A sclerosing agent closes the vein and a tiny rotating wire tip destroys the diseased vein.

At Center for Vein Restoration in Saginaw, we serve the community in which we live. We treat each patient as we would our family and neighbors. We ensure a speedy and complete recovery from initial consultation to the day of your procedure and beyond.
