The process to determine if a venous procedure is needed starts with an evaluation of the patient. First, we meet with the patient and obtain their medical history, as there are various risk factors that predispose someone to venous disease. We then examine the extremities and perform a physical exam. After that, we highly recommend a diagnostic ultrasound, which is non-invasive and typically takes just a few minutes to perform on both legs. Based on the results of the ultrasound, along with the history and exam findings, we will create a tailored treatment plan.
