"Expanding The Benefits of Vein Closure. Now there is a viable alternative to

through the use of a diode laser fiber to close the Greater Saphenous Vein.
The procedure is easy to perform and gets patients back on their feet in only 45 minutes"

"Dr. Belsom did the EVLT surgery on some painful varicose veins I had in my legs.
Not only were my veins hurting, they also were not functioning properly. After
surgery, the results were remarkable. The shock-like pains are gone, my restless
leg syndrome is gone and my legs look much better too. I can highly recommend
Dr. Belsom to anyone needing his expertise in this area." ~ Cheryl Amman
IMPORTANT NOTES:
* Not all patients suffering from venous diseases will be suitable candidates for this treatment.
