The Vein Clinic was formed in 2003 for the sole purpose of treatment of varicose veins and venous disease of the extremities. We currently offer services in Marquette, Sault Ste. Marie and Escanaba and also recently began offering services in the Detroit area at our newest center, The Vein Clinic at UnaSource, in Troy. For years, many patients with varicose veins, and other venous disease which may or may not lead to bulging varicose veins, have been underdiagnosed or been presented with limited, incomplete, or undesirable treatment options. The mission of The Vein Clinic is to utilize state-of-the-art diagnostic and treatment options to present patients with a comprehensive treatment plan which will offer the best possible outcome with minimal patient discomfort and short recovery time.
The Vein Clinic staff also utilizes its close relationship with other medical subspecialists to make additional services readily available to our patients. Intensive wound care treatment is available with extended care offered through our relationship with specialty wound care programs in Northern Michigan and Detroit.. Surgical and medical consultation is also available for the rare patient who may not have good minimally invasive treatment options or who have a nonvenous etiology for their problem. The Vein Clinic of Northern Michigan has also now incorporated Superior MediSpa into our program to continue to provide state-of-the-art options for improving and maintaining your health and appearance.
