We started Sentara Martha Jefferson Vascular and Vein out of necessity to our patients to provide total vein care. As specialists in all vascular diseases including the treatment of arterial, lymphatic and vein conditions we recognized the importance of creating a specific branch of our practice fully dedicated to treating venous disorders and varicose veins.
To the general public, vein conditions do not seem to be as important a problem as artery conditions because after all our brain, heart, kidneys and all other organs depend on a continuous flow of fresh oxygen to survive. However, veins are actually more complicated than arteries because they are difficult to understand and definitely more difficult to completely correct.
