Totonelly, one of the finest medical doctors in the Hudson Valley, with over 30 years of experience. In my first visit to Dr. Totonelly an ultrasound was performed on both my legs which helped to identify damaged veins. I was then very well educated by Dr. Totonelly regarding the varicose vein treatment I was to receive to relieve my vascular problems. I was really happy when my Aetna insurance approved the surgery, called Endovenous Ablation. That surgery was done in the office under local anesthetic and no hospitalization was required. It took approximately 45 minutes per leg, which were surgically repaired with a one week interval between the two surgeries. In both instances I was able to walk without any problems the same day of the respective surgeries. Amazingly, within a couple of weeks after the surgeries I STOPPED FEELING burning and annoying pain in my legs. Dr. Totonelly further advised me about cosmetic Laser spider vein treatment and Sclerotherapy to both legs. I received 4 treatment sessions to address my numerous spider veins. I could not believe it, but the treatments resulted in the complete disappearance of huge brown spots on my legs caused by poor blood circulation. With my spider veins now vanquished, my legs currently have a healthy , young look. I am very pleased to be a patient of Dr. Totonelly and his very friendly, very well trained staff. Dr. Totonelly has such an amazing, compassionate personality. He's a highly trained, highly skilled professional, as well as an incredible human being with a huge heart. He is truly dedicated to his work and he really cares for his patients. I learned Dr.Totonelly not only does treatments of the veins but also does amazing facial and body laser treatments . His great work returns health and youth to people. Thank you very much. Sincerely, Elena.

Dr. Madan promised amazing results and failed to deliver. Beside the disappointing results, the procedures cost way more than what I was quoted. Out of principal, I asked a couple of times for a $400.00 bill to be written off since I had already spent so much money and my legs look exactly the same before $6K was spent on them. I guess the answer is no because the office keeps sending me the bill, along with a "refer a friend" card and leave messages for follow up appointments. I hope I can save at least one person some money and time by letting them know my disappointing experience with Vein Clinics of America. Not worth the money or the down time from the treatment. There are other medical facilities in CT which I am going to try out. These facilities have great reviews and hopefully can deliver better results and customer service than Vein Clinic of America did.
