Non-Surgical Treatment

Dr. McChord's comprehensive, non-surgical approach includes the COMPASSSM protocol of Ultrasound-Guided Sclerotherapy, as well as Endovenous Laser Treatment (ELT).

The average patient requires Sclerotherapy in conjunction with ELT to treat the smaller veins. Consequently, it is essential to choose a treatment provider who is equally skilled in both treatment options to ensure complete, satisfactory and long-term results.

Dr. McChord's refined use of Sclerotherapy, combined with ELT, allows him to meet the needs of all of his patients by treating the smallest spider vein to the largest ropelike varicose vein, and even leg ulcers.

Neither option requires hospitalization or surgery. Instead each is performed in the physician's office. You can be back on your feet resuming normal activities the next day, or even sooner.

Unique to the treatment of varicose veins, VCA utilizes state-of-the-art endovenous laser technology along with the non-surgical, minimally invasive COMPASS [TM] technique of ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy. This allows VCA to meet the specific needs of each individual patient by providing comprehensive treatment from the largest varicose vein to the smallest spider vein. The procedures are performed on an outpatient basis, so patients can resume most activities shortly after treatment.
