Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Vena Seal
I had this relatively new procedure done July 2018 by a board certified (I think) vascular surgeon in Rancho Mirage CA. There were 2 procedures done a week part. I was scared and almost cancelled the day before. There are a lot of unknowns and it is not best to be among the early users of a new medical treatment.
The pain was a 3.5 at the sight of the injection lasting only a second. It was weird and uncomfortable as the catheter slid through the vein, yes from the ankle to the groin. A week later a second procedure in the area of my bulging veins. The after photo was taken the day after procedure 2. Ugly painful veins gone. 6 months later, looks really good. No healing problems whatsoever. I’m glad I did it but sometimes wonder will they someday discover it causes some kind of unexpected problem or disease. Could a piece of glue break off and go to my heart, brain or lungs. As they say, no risk, no reward.
