7 Questions
you should ask...
1. Does
the treating physician specialize in Vein Disorder
Medicine or is this something they occasionally
dabble with on the side?
2. Does an M.D. personally evaluate, diagnose, perform
treatments, and provide follow-up care?
3. Does a non-physician ancillary staff member simply
perform injections or laser treatments without
the patient even being evaluated by the physician
?
4. Are treatment options offered and fully discussed
or does every patient get identical nonindividualized
care?
5. Does the facility have the proper diagnostic
equipment to properly treat both complex and
simple vein problems?
6. Does the facility simply treat what they see
on the skin or do they carefully evaluate for
the underlying cause?(I.e. feeding vessels with
advanced diagnostic equipment like Veinlites
or Colorflow duplex ultrasound machines)
7. Is the physician a member of The American College
of Phlebology?(Society for physicians who specialize
in treating vein disorders) |
