What are varicose veins?

Varicose veins are swollen, twisted veins that bulge under the skin—usually in the legs—when valves fail and blood pools instead of returning to the heart.

Introduction

Is vein treatment covered by insurance?

Surgical treatments for symptomatic veins are covered by Medicare. However, VenaSeal™ and sclerotherapy are not covered by provincial health insurance and are typically not reimbursed by private insurance plans. Your provider can help explain costs.

How do I know which treatment I need?

A consultation with duplex ultrasound helps identify the cause and severity of your vein condition. Your specialist will then recommend the best option, such as surgical options, sclerotherapy, or VenaSeal™.

Are varicose veins only a cosmetic issue?

No. While they can affect appearance, varicose veins may also cause heaviness, swelling, aching, cramps, and fatigue — signs of underlying venous insufficiency.

What causes varicose and spider veins?

Varicose and spider veins develop when vein valves weaken or fail, causing blood to pool instead of flowing efficiently back to the heart. Genetics, pregnancy, standing for long hours, and aging can increase the risk.

Is there a fee for the consultation?

No. Your consultation is covered by provincial health insurance (Medicare) when you have a referral from your doctor. This means there is no out-of-pocket cost for your initial assessment.
