About NYVC
The New York Vein Center (NYVC) with two clinics in Brooklyn, New York serving patients throughout the tri-state region, is under the direction of its medical director David M. Glass, MD, FACS. This respected and accomplished practice continues to perform the latest, proven procedures to correct and heal the effects of venous disease of the legs, face and hands, spanning a quarter century. The practice is composed of board certified physicians including a vascular surgeon and a knowledgeable, highly experienced medical staff comprised of nursing and administrative professionals.
NYVC is a multi-disciplinary vein center treating the full spectrum of venous disease. The practice primarily specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of venous disease affecting the legs – the enlarged, often painful, bluish varicose veins and the unsightly "branching" appearance of spider veins. Due to a recent breakthrough in minimally invasive medical technology, the practice has added the capability to treat and eliminate thread veins found on face and hands, with applications also for the legs.
For the convenience of NYVC patients, all procedures required to successfully diagnose and treat venous disease take place at the practice, from the initial consultation through post procedure care. Accordingly, the practice features one of region’s few Vascular Labs providing ultrasound diagnostic evaluations to confirm NYVC physician’s findings.
