“Finally a Dr that really knows how to eliminate spider veins”
I have been to many Doctors over the years for schlerotherapy. Several did a few schlerotherapy treatments, but I really didn't see results. Dr Fort took the time to thoroughly explain what he does and then he answered any questions I had. I went for months and had pretty good results. Be patient because results dont happen overnight. But they will happen. Do this for yourself, you will be happy you did. He and his staff are compassionate and kind. I definitely recommend Dr Fort!
