Varicose Vein Treatment
Our varicose vein treatments use minimally invasive techniques like thermal ablation, sclerotherapy, and VenaSeal to close diseased veins. These procedures reroute blood flow to healthy veins, alleviating symptoms like pain, swelling, and heaviness while improving leg appearance. Patients typically resume normal activities immediately after treatment.
Uterine Fibroid Embolization
Uterine fibroid embolization blocks blood flow to fibroid tumors using tiny particles, causing them to shrink. This nonsurgical alternative to hysterectomy preserves the uterus, reduces heavy menstrual bleeding, and alleviates pelvic pressure with minimal recovery time compared to traditional surgery.
Pelvic Venous Embolization
Pelvic venous embolization treats chronic pelvic pain caused by varicose pelvic veins. Using catheter-directed techniques, we seal abnormal veins with coils and sclerosants, restoring proper blood flow and providing long-term relief from symptoms like heaviness and discomfort in the pelvic region.
Hemorrhoidal Artery Embolization
Hemorrhoidal artery embolization targets internal hemorrhoids by blocking their blood supply through catheter-based delivery of embolic agents. This outpatient procedure reduces bleeding, pain, and swelling while avoiding the risks and recovery time associated with surgical hemorrhoidectomy.
DVT Treatment
Our DVT treatments use thrombectomy and catheter-directed thrombolysis to remove dangerous blood clots in deep veins. For high-risk patients, we place temporary IVC filters to prevent pulmonary embolism, followed by angioplasty and stenting to restore venous flow and prevent recurrence.

Most competent doctors in the field. They look at the big picture. Their office staff are extremely friendly and caring. They look for ways to make sure you have a good experience! Well worth my 1 1/2 drive to see them. I won't go anywhere else! Love IVC!

I have had three vein treatments at IVC. The doctors and staff have always been friendly and comforting, especially with the first vein ablation. They explained exactly what they were going to do and helped me to know what to expect each step they took. I would highly recommend them. I took the advice of a friend by going to them, and she did not steer me wrong.

My wife was treated at IVC. The difference it has made in her quality of life has been amazing. The recovery was quick. I wish we had visited with them earlier. It would have resolved the pain she has been dealing with for 20+ years. It was all resolved within 2 weeks of her treatment.

I can not say enough good things about IVC. They are very knowledgeable in pelvic vein disease. Kelly Thorpe was very patient in answering all my questions prior to my embolization and explained everything impeccably. Everyone the day of embolization was so great. Loved my nurse! I've since had another small procedure and was in and out within 45 minutes. All the ultrasound techs that I have met at very personable and knowledgeable.

Got to my appt that I had to schedule months prior and they tell me my appt was canceled. I received no texts or calls from them. Now I'm at the end of the year and they can't get me in until 2022. Terrible service!
