GREENBELT, Md., Sept. 04, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Center for Vein Restoration (CVR) has officially added Dr. Nick Morrison MD, FACS, FACPh of Phoenix to its expanding roster of physicians treating venous disease throughout the country. Dr. Morrison comes with high acclaim and experience as one of the world's leaders in the research, publication and treatment of venous disease. As the current President of the International Union of Phlebology and past president of the American College of Phlebology, Dr. Morrison provides an unparalleled perspective on the scope of venous and lymphatic disease and its treatments. "I'm so excited to get started with such a purposeful organization and bring about more positive change to people that are suffering with venous and lymphatic disease and the many complications that result from it," said Dr. Morrison.
The addition of Dr. Morrison is another example of Center for Vein Restoration leading in the realm of venous and lymphatic disease treatment. His research and many publications add to the clinical expertise of the organization. "Patients, insurers and physicians are realizing that venous disease is real. That annoying to debilitating leg pain, cramping, varicose veins, leg swelling, skin changes and skin breakdowns are not an expected part of the aging process. Quality of life can improve, and symptoms can be relieved with simple, in office procedures," added Dr. Sanjiv Lakhanpal, CEO. "Dr. Morrison and his decades of being on the forefront of advancing the care of patients with venous disorders will enable CVR to further our mission of improving the human condition by providing state of the art vascular care in a compassionate & cost-effective manner," he concluded.
Dr. Morrison's accomplishments and accreditations also include:
Venous insufficiency, the cause of significant suffering due to the sequelae of venous hypertension, most commonly arises as achy, tired and heavy legs. It may or may not be associated with varicose veins, spider veins or skin changes including venous ulcerations and indiscriminately affects between 30–40 million Americans. Numerous factors including age, weight, prolonged sitting or standing, genetics or a history of DVT (blood clots) can increase the risk of developing this common and often underdiagnosed disorder. Treatment options have evolved to an array of minimally invasive procedures in an office setting.
