Money down the drain. Mine was a disappointing experience,…read moreunrelated to a treatment itself... I never got that far. I wasn't able to use insurance for varicose veins so was very cost conscious. The consult alone was $199.. which would not go towards the cost of any procedure you'd do. I wasnt able to get a quote without it so I eventually did it. After the consult, I was told I'd need a $400+ ultrasound of my vein before they could quote me... . I'd in the consult, there must be some ballpark figure you could give me, but understanding there were variables. I was told $2500-$3000. I asked the DR. again before going for commiting to the ultrasound...$2500-$300 INCLUDING this $600 I'm spending? Yes. So I did the ultrasound, having to pay upfront. Then they suggested I ultrasound both legs since it would cost the same, so I did that, all puzzled why there wasn't a one leg charge. Everyone all along the way were very nice. The quote came in around $4500 for one leg NOT including what I'd spent. $5100 compared to $3000 is nowhere near the 'ballpark', and I tell them I can't do it for that much and how I felt about that. A few weeks later I get a call from them for scheduling- I guess my deeply expressed feelings about this didn't make it past the deaf ear it fell on. THEN I get a bill for $840+. I call to say 'what the heck'. I'm told, oh you already paid it, disregard. I never paid that amount or owed that amount... they are ALL over the place with their charges and lack of communication. $600 down the drain... a hard pill to swallow.

I had 4 appointments, none of them began on time. 2 ended being phone appointments that I ended because the dr was running behind. I stated that the dr could call me which he did, 30 minutes past the scheduled time. The last 2 in person were the same. I should have trusted my instincts and washed my hands of this place but I didn't. My fault but I won't go back. They remind me of an airline trip where you're at the departure gate in plenty of time but no airplane. 15 or so minutes later, still no airplane but they announce that the arriving plane is going to be late. Thanks Captain Obvious. If you choose to go, I sincerely hope your experience is better than mine.
