More than 50 million Americans suffer from some form of venous dis- order. While some seek treatment for cosmetic improvements, others are looking for symptomatic relief. Heredity is the number one contribut- ing factor causing varicose and spider veins. Hormonal factors that also influ- ence vein disease include puberty, preg- nancy, menopause, the use of birth control pills. Leg pain, discomfort and unsightly appearance of veins may be also be aggravated by pregnancy, leg injury, obesity, lack of exercise, weight fluctuation, and long periods of sitting or standing. All of the above symptoms and scenarios are regularly seen and successfully treated at The Vein Institute of New Jersey at the Cardiovascular Care Group. Whether you are dealing with the painful “ropey” veins or you simply need a 15 minute touch up to remove a few unsightly spider veins, the vascular specialists at the Vein Institute are here to help! The Vein Institute of New Jersey, was established in 1986 as the first institu- tion in New Jersey devoted exclusively to the diagnosis and treatment of vari- cose and spider veins. Today with eight (8) convenient locations, these board certified specialists are considered to be leading experts in vascular medi- cine. The Institute is renowned as one of the top teaching and training facili- ties in the world for the treatment and care of patients with venous disorders. What has changed over the years is that The Vein Institute of New Jersey NOW PARTICIPATES with MOST insur- ance plans! The most commonly asked question by the patients at the Vein Institute include: “Are your services covered by my insurance?” “What is the best treatment for me? “How do we get started?” The good news is that in all cases where medical necessity is deter- mined, VINJ’s services are covered by insurance. VINJ’s skilled pre-authoriza- tion team diligently pursues the carri- ers for approval and nothing gets scheduled until YOU receive your cov- erage determination. A typical scenario for diagnosis and treatment at the Vein Institute of New Jersey may include a physical exam and a 30 minute noninvasive ultrasound test, to determine areas of venous dis- ease (dilated veins, faulty valves, and or areas of clot). The vascular specialist will clearly communicate the latest conservative treatment options and will include an individualized plan to follow to achieve optimum results. All of VINJ locations have an accredited vascular lab/testing facility on site. The patient is not inconvenienced by hav- ing to go to another location to receive the necessary tests to properly diag- nose one’s condition. If a procedure is recommended, the non-invasive serv- ice is regularly preformed in the office in less than an hour with local anes- thesia. Our patients are back on their feet fully functional, walking normally out of the office only moments after the procedure is completed. “Just one of the considerations which makes The VEIN INSTITUTE of NEW JERSEY different from the other physi- cians attempting to treat patients with venous disease, is the fact that we are trained, boarded physicians with expertise in Vascular Surgery” states Clifford Sales, M.D. “Our experience, technical training, state of the art facil- ities and our overall commitment to the successful outcomes of our patients, really makes the difference. I regularly caution those potential patients, to check out the physician’s background, the facility and their com- mitment to success. There are many ‘so called specialists’ just entering this area of medicine without any training in vascular disease”.
