Choosing a Vein Specialist Doesn’t Have to be Challenging

Choose a Board-Certified Doctor

Becoming board-certified shows a doctor’s commitment to continuing education and excellence in a field. Choosing a vein specialist who is board-certified in vascular medicine can ensure your provider has knowledge and experience in the most recent developments in vascular medicine.

Do Your Research

Learn more about the clinic and providers by reviewing their website in advance, along with their ratings from patients on medical websites. You can typically review provider credentials online to determine whether the doctors at a particular clinic meet your expectations for experience and education before you schedule your appointment. You can also find out more about the kinds of services they offer. Better Business Bureau scores are available to the public and can also be helpful.

Believe in Word of Mouth

If you know any friends or family members who have suffered from varicose veins, ask who treated them and how they felt about their experience with that clinic and doctor. Choosing a provider your friends or family members trust can give you peace of mind and save you the trouble of learning for yourself that a doctor is not qualified or a good fit for you.

Interview Your Doctor

Write down your questions before the first consultation appointment so you can learn more about the doctor you’ll be working with and ensure his values align well with yours. Many patients forget their questions once the doctor is in the room, so writing them down is important. Other patients yet feel uncomfortable asking questions, but doctors expect patients to be particular and selective when making these decisions.
