Provided by Doctor.comMy experience has been excellent from beginning to follow up! The relief of pain I have experienced from this procedure is a miracle for me. I slogged through for so long with tiredness and pain that I had no idea what I was enduring until I had Dr Vasquez help me. The office staff is easy to reach and the patient portal is an effective tool to reach out if needs be. Really can't say enough about how life changing this is.

Provided by Doctor.comI had no idea how much pain my veins were causing me until I spoken to a friend about my leg pain. She suggested I get a consultation at the Venous Institute. The entire process was so easy and very comfortable! Within a few short months my legs feel amazing! The entire staff was friendly and educated on the process. All very willing to answer any questions I had along the way. Dr. Vasquez has an incredible demeanor and took any fear away. They actually care about the patient!

Provided by Doctor.comDr. Vasquez and his team are miracle workers! When I entered his office in November of 2017 I had legs that looked like snakes and worms had made their homes in the calves, thighs and ankles. My legs looked like I was the world's oldest woman. Today, 4 months later, after only one treatment per leg, I have snake free legs that feel fantastic.
Everyone from the front desk receptionists, tech staff and Dr. at the Venous Institute of Buffalo make you feel comfortable. THANK YOU!
