Midday Maryland - Free Vein Screening

The Vein Center at GBMC offers expertise and technology to address the entire spectrum of venous issues – from the diagnosis and treatment of serious conditions like varicose veins to cosmetic procedures like sclerotherapy.

Varicose veins form when the valves responsible for pushing blood up towards the heart and sealing off blood from coming back down malfunction, which can cause blood to leak back down and pool in the vein. Varicose veins are more common in women and have a genetic component to them.
