About The Canadian Vein Institute

The Canadian Vein Institute is unique in Canada in that we offer a complete complement of medical and surgical options to fully manage your venous problems. Our medical staff are experienced surgeons and phlebologists who have many years experience in managing varicose veins.

Vein disease is far from just a cosmetic issue. Many patients who neglect their vein problems end up with irreversible unsightly and sometimes painful complication. In rare cases conditions that can threaten life or limb can arise. The symptoms associated with varicose veins are most often manageable using properly fitted compression stockings. When symptoms are not adequately treated with stockings alone we consider this complicated vein disease and an indication for a more effective and long-term treatment like EVLT.
