“I HIGHLY RECOMMEND DR. SCHWARCZ AND VEIN CENTRAL!”
Choosing Dr. Schwarcz and the Vein Central team was the best decision I could have made for treating my varicose veins. He is very easy to talk to and has a great sense of humor. He is always willing to listen and spend the necessary time needed to discuss your diagnosis. I cannot say enough about his staff. His nurse Jennifer is so friendly and helpful. She has always answered my questions with an immediate response. The ultrasound technicians Chrissa and Steve are so caring and considerate. Through my whole experience, the staff has made me feel more like their friend rather than just another patient. I researched the vein procedures and doctors before beginning my journey. I decided on Dr. Schwarcz because he is the only vascular surgeon in Lexington that specializes in varicose veins. I felt because of his training and experience that he was the right choice for me. I am very happy with the decision that I made.
