W

ith local vein clinics
advertising their services
on an array of media
channels, it is important
to speak up about the complex issue of
vein disease and the need for seeing the
appropriate specialist to address and
correct problems effectively. Because
vein problems affect over half of the
adult women and a quarter of the adult
men in this country, the evaluation and
care of these problems cannot be left to
chance because outcomes are vital.
“My pledge is to provide every one
of my patients with the best possible
care I can offer,” says Diego Hernandez,
M.D., a board-certified vascular surgeon
with 18 years’ experience and direc-
tor of Bloomfield Vein and Vascular in
Bloomfield Hills. “Patient trust is the
cornerstone of the foundation that
allows me to offer the most contempo-
rary and comprehensive care available.”
Bloomfield Vein specializes in solving
your leg problems. Patients come to the
clinic when experiencing achy, tired or
heavy thighs or legs; when they have leg
or ankle swelling or because they have
discoloration of the ankle. Sometimes
patients present because their thighs
or legs hurt when exercising or because
they have leg cramps or restless legs.
Bloomfield Vein specializes in treat-
ing the persistent leg swelling after
back, hip and knee surgery and it is in
a unique position to treat you if you
have ever been diagnosed with a blood
clot, DVT. For individuals who have
been treated elsewhere for their vein
disease but still have symptoms, and
when other physicians struggle to find
answers to your concerns, their experi-
ence over 18 years allows them to find
a solution and restore hope that some-
thing can be done.
Vein conditions can be quite complex.
“At Bloomfield Vein we have the expertise
to treat the common bulging varicose
veins and the symptoms related to vein
disease,” Dr. Hernandez says. “But we
also focus on the treatment of May-
Thurner syndrome, POTS and pelvic
congestion syndrome. Women who con-
tinue to experience symptoms despite
being treated for endometriosis often
benefit from a thorough evaluation of
their pelvic veins. Ankle and foot wounds
that do not heal may often be associated
with vein conditions. Our experience in
dealing with these complex problems is
unmatched by local vein clinics.”

Experts In Vein Care

Patients experiencing spider veins
might be swayed by a television ad,
but the issue is more complex than
cosmetic. Millions of people suffer.
Many see these veins as unsightly and
look to make them disappear with
lasers. Bloomfield Vein offers an FDA-
approved solution, then looks beyond
the immediate problem as the appear-
ance of surface veins might reflect a
more serious underlying issue.
A board-certified vascular surgeon
is in the unique position to ensure
that if you do suffer from a vascular
leg condition, that only the appropri-
ate tests and the appropriate treat-
ment is performed. This is essential
because certain problems, such as leg
pain with activity, skin discoloration
of the ankle or a wound that will not
heal, are often a mix of both an arteri-
al and a venous condition. The wrong
diagnosis could lead to wasted tests
and time and could risk serious com-
plications. Other vein centers do not
have the experience or the expertise
to recognize these complex problems.
Treatments are conducted in a
5,200-square-foot state-of-the-art

clinic with the latest technology and
equipment. Dr. Hernandez and his
staff perform minimally invasive treat-
ments, such as ablation procedures,
balloon angioplasty and stents, on
site, thus saving the agony of making
multiple appointments at a myriad
of clinics and keeping your care away
from a hospital setting. Its ultrasound
exams are performed at its accredited
vascular lab, administered by a highly
trained, compassionate tech with a
decade of experience. Dr. Hernandez
oversees all the tests, procedures and
overall care.
Whatever your concerns about your
leg symptoms, the team at Bloomfield
Vein will take time evaluating you, mak-
ing sure you have a full understanding
of your condition and striving to meet
your expectations. “We take the time to
educate you about your condition and
will guide you through the examination
process to ensure the best outcome
possible,” Dr. Hernandez says.
He asks the crucial question any
patient or the family member of a patient
must ask: Why would you take a chance
in being treated by someone who might

be limited in what they can offer you?
“The care of your vein problem is too
important to leave to chance. Let us
evaluate you and let us show you what
sets up apart,” says Dr. Hernandez, a
board certified vascular surgeon dedi-
cated to the care of patients with vein
disease. And the best!

your condition advances. Y
