Tamara V - Vein Clinic PA Review

Worst Symptoms: Lack of sleep due to leg discomfort, heaviness and pain in my legs if I sat or stood for any period of time.

Comments on Clinic Staff:

• I have never met a more friendly staff. On one of my visits my car broke down 6 blocks from the clinic. One of the staff came and picked me up and took me to my appointment. Then returned me to my car and stayed with me until I got help. Things like that are almost unheard of in today’s world. It meant a lot to me.

Results: I can sit, walk, sleep, shop, cook and clean my house and when I am done, my legs fee great! I no longer lie on the couch in pain and “pay” for doing things I enjoy. I just cooked Thanksgiving dinner and was on my feet from 7am-7pm. At the end of the day my legs were pain free and still feeling great!

How Vein Clinic PA is different: They work with you and for you because they truly want to make you better. I had my laser surgeries at 6pm. At other clinics, that is unheard of. Then, I was able to have my next surgery the next morning. I live 2½ hours away from the nearest clinic so they helped make my stays there possible and my appointments convenient for me.
