Do I need to go to the hospital for Varicose Vein treatment?

Answered by
Dr. Brian T. Chin

No, you do not need to go to the hospital for varicose vein treatment. Most modern varicose vein procedures are performed safely in an outpatient vein clinic using specialized equipment by trained vein specialists, without the need for hospital admission.

No, you do not need to go to the hospital for treatment of your varicose veins.

In fact, hospitals typically do not have the specialized equipment, staff, and physicians dedicated to treating the full spectrum of vein disease.

Comprehensive vein care is most often provided in an outpatient vein center that is specifically designed for diagnosing and treating venous conditions.

Still Relying on Compression Stockings?

For many patients, compression therapy can help manage symptoms but it may not address the underlying vein condition. Our board-certified vascular surgeons offer comprehensive evaluations to determine whether minimally invasive treatment is appropriate for you.
