Your partners for life

Local residents experiencing vein disease need not worry. The team at Cardiovascular Associates of Lake County possesses the necessary credentials, experience and background to provide top-notch, comprehensive care.

“We have a team of invasive cardiologists who are used to treating heart problems and peripheral artery disease,” says Dr. J. Henry Lesmes, a cardiologist in Lake County for 22 years. “Treating veins is a continuation of our skills we’ve developed in residency and throughout our careers.”

The team conducts a thorough medical history and performs ultrasound to rule out other problems, such as osteoarthritis or neuropathy. Conservative treatments like making lifestyle changes or wearing compression stockings are the first line of treatment.

If symptoms persist, the team at Cardiovascular Associates of Lake County can utilize an in-office procedure called radiofrequency ablation. During this non-surgical, outpatient procedure, a thin catheter is carefully inserted into the diseased vein. Then, radiofrequency energy is applied to help seal the vein.

As one of the oldest and most experienced private cardiology practices in Central Florida, at Cardiovascular Associates of Lake County, we are dedicated to bringing innovation in cardiovascular care to our patients. Since 1992, we are your partners for life.
