Testimonials
As we’ve stated in our philosophy section, we realize that patient and repeat physician referrals are our best advertising. We’ve been fortunate to have an outstanding group of patients that have recommended The Vein Center to their family, to friends and to their physicians.
“The results are wonderful, there is no more pain in the treated leg.”
“I am recommending your clinic to everyone I see.”
“All of my symptoms are gone-the ulcers and inflamed areas are already almost completely healed and I don’t have pain in my leg anymore.”
“My leg pain is completely gone, thank you so much!”
“My pain went from a 9 out of 10 to a 1 out of 10—in 4 days! I’m very, very pleased.”
“My pain and swelling have decreased and my ulcer is finally starting to heal. My doctor told me that The Vein Center is the only place she sends her patients with vein problems.”
“My swelling is way down after treatment and I’m wearing shoes that I couldn’t wear for years; it’s time to go shoe shopping!”
This is just a small collection of the comments that we have gotten over the last 6 years but is typical of the results that we get at The Vein Center. It has been a great pleasure to meet the many wonderful patients that come for treatment at The Vein Center as well as their friends and family. If you have or suspect that you have vein problems, please give us a call; we’d love to help you. If you choose another facility, please seek attention promptly, before small problems become large problems.
The Vein Center was initially started in Little Rock, Arkansas in late 2004 to address the growing need of patients for a local facility that could evaluate and treat varicose veins and other associated Venous disorders. The Vein Center was initially started as a part-time clinic open two half days a week and staffed by Dr. Long and quickly grew in size, requiring the construction of a separate full time clinic which opened in January of 2007.
As the Medical Director, Dr. Long (an Interventional Radiologist) realized that Arkansas needed a facility capable of handling the full spectrum of venous disease, from cosmetic procedures such as sclerotherapy for spider veins to venous treatment for limb-threatening leg ulcerations. We treat patients with significant medical problems such as leg pain, leg swelling, itching, restless leg syndrome, burning and leg ulceration. Dr. Long has made medical presentations throughout Arkansas to further educate the medical community about the need for prompt and definitive venous diagnosis and treatment. He has also published in the local medical literature highlighting the evaluation and treatment of varicose veins and venous abnormalities as seen and treated in The Vein Center.
In July of 2008 The Vein Center had grown to the point of needing both additional space and staff and operations were transferred to our outpatient clinic at 11219 Financial Centre Parkway, Suite 215 under the direction of Dr. Long. Our new facility has more room, is more comfortable, has been remodeled specifically for Venous care and has ground-level, easy access for our patients. Our staff has also grown from a staff of 3 to a staff of 7 to better accommodate our patients and the needs of our referring physicians. Dr. Long has focused his practice solely on the evaluation and treatment of venous disease.
