Vein Health Medical Clinic Announces Grand Opening of Second Location
The new office in Melbourne’s CBD allows staff members to better serve the growing number of patients suffering from venous conditions, publishes veinhealth.com.au
Melbourne, Victoria – April 8, 2016 /MarketersMedia/ —
Studies conducted by various members of the medical industry over the last decade and released late last year reveal an estimated 23 percent of men and 31 percent of women in Australia suffer from varicose veins. This globally prominent condition presents itself in a number of different forms and varying levels of severity. This comes as no surprise to the staff of the Vein Health Medical Clinic, Melbourne’s leading authority on this condition as well as its treatment.
In light of the surging prevalence of varicose veins, founder Dr. Peter Paraskevas has announced the recent grand opening of the practice’s second location. Said Dr. Paraskevas, “We’ve certainly seen the number of patients suffering from vascular diseases grow over the last several years. From the beginning, our goal has been to provide patients with the most advanced treatment options in a relaxed, inviting atmosphere, and opening our second location will allow us to better serve those in our area.”
Based on information found on the practice’s website, available varicose veins treatments include a number of non-surgical alternatives. Among these is Endovenous Laser Ablation, a procedure entailing insertion of a laser fibre into the affected veins, thus sealing them and resulting in their collapse. Over time, veins treated in this manner are absorbed into the body with their roles being taken over by healthy blood vessels.
Generating similar results to EVLA, Ultrasound Guided Sclerotherapy involves injecting a specialised solution into an abnormal vein. Radio frequency ablation falls into this category as well. This treatment utilises heat to close damaged damaged veins with the treated vessels likewise being naturally absorbed by the patient’s body. The Vein Health Medical Clinic’s latest treatment innovation is known worldwide as VenaSeal, an alternative in which medical grade glue is injected into diseased veins.
Concluded Dr. Paraskevas, “All our treatments have been proven effective and are minimally invasive. Patients are usually able to return to their normal daily activities in as little as a few hours after the procedures. In addition to varicose veins, we also treat spider veins, lymphedema, leg ulcers and other vascular conditions, all without the potential scarring and side effects of the more invasive outdated methods. We urge patients suffering from any of these issues to contact our original office located in the Elgar Hill Specialist Consulting Suites or our new location in the Collins Place Professional Suites in Melbourne’s Central Business District to schedule a consultation.”
