Consultation, Imaging, Diagnostics & Advanced Vein Treatment

Oakville Vascular, Southern Ontario's leading state-of-the-art vein clinic, offers consultation, imaging, diagnostics, and advanced vein treatment. Our team of academic vascular surgeons also offer consultation, diagnosis and treatment options for arterial vascular conditions.

Our Focus

Assessment and Advice: Our goal is to provide an accurate diagnosis and advise appropriate treatment to those individuals with arterial and venous disease.
Imaging: In many cases diagnosis and follow-up of vascular disorders may require “non-invasive” vascular imaging.

  • High Definition Ultrasound Imaging
  • Color Doppler and Power Doppler Ultrasound Imaging
  • Vascular Physio assessment unit and photoplethysmography
  • Digital Imaging (MINI PACS)

Office-Based Treatments: Some of our patients may benefit or seek treatments that we can offer in our community office.
Hospital Co-ordination: A small number of our patients may require some tests or treatment within a hospital setting. We will provide care and co-ordinate communication between the hospital and our office.

Our Treatment

We offer minimally invasive treatments for large (bulging) varicose veins. All patients with varicose veins should adhere to lifestyle measures and wear support/compression stockings. Additional in-office treatments can include:

Lifestyle Measures (Conservative Treatment) - regular exercise, maintaining a healthy weight, periodic rest, elevation of the legs, and wearing graduated compression stockings.
Endovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT) - procedure is performed in our clinic under local anaesthetic, using laser energy to permanently collapse and seal shut damaged saphenous veins.
Conventional Sclerotherapy - procedure is performed in our clinic under local anaesthetic, for the treatment of spider veins or small superficial varicose veins.
Ultrasound Guided Sclerotherapy (Foam Sclerotherapy) - treatment of damaged branch veins, especially those that lie below the surface and cannot be directly seen.
Medical Adhesive (VenaSeal®) - minimally invasive treatment option using advanced medical adhesive to seal the diseased vein.
