Treatment Options
Treating vein disorders is not a one-size-fits-all proposition.

Dr. Jimenez offers the following procedure options at the Vein Center of Florida & South Baldwin:
- Endovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT) – this treatment was actually pioneered by Dr. Jimenez along the Emerald Coast

Many patients mistake visible veins as merely a cosmetic problem, but that is not always the case. Some spider and varicose veins are visible signs of an underlying vein disorder that could worsen over time if it is left unchecked. Dr. Jimenez is highly qualified to diagnose your vein condition correctly and then offer the best possible treatment option for your specific needs.
