NYU Langone Long Island Vein Center

The NYU Langone Long Island Vein Center provides specialized care for patients with venous conditions, including varicose veins, spider and reticular veins, lipodermatosclerosis, leg swelling, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), May-Thurner syndrome, pelvic congestion, and lymphedema. Our mission is to provide patients with comprehensive knowledge, care, and treatment options. All procedures are performed by board-certified vascular surgeons with a passion for treating venous disease. In addition, most procedures are performed on an outpatient basis and are minimally invasive: they are done without large incisions or the need for prolonged recovery. Patients are seen and evaluated at NYU Langone Ambulatory Care Garden City, and procedures are performed at our Vein Center at 200 Old Country Road, Suite 120, in Mineola.

Treatments for Venous Conditions

Our aim is to guide patients towards the best treatment option for their individual conditions. These are some of the methods we use to treat venous conditions:

• thermal ablation with endovenous laser therapy or radiofrequency ablation (EVLT or RFA)
• nonthermal ablation with Varithena or VenaSeal
• stab phlebectomy, or microphlebectomy, to remove varicose veins from the surface of the legs
• sclerotherapy for treating spider and reticular veins
• venography with intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) for treatment of deep venous disease

For conditions such as lymphedema or leg swelling, we evaluate, diagnose, and offer referrals for lymphedema pump therapy or lymphedema clinics for decongestive therapy.
