“Seal of Approval” Patients Can Count On

Our main priority is the care and protection of your health, for that reason we follow best practices by following a seal of approval program. The program offers a method for vein centers to voluntarily document a commitment to quality patient care related to the performance and management of venous disorders. During the accreditation process, applicant vein centers must submit documentation on every aspect of their daily operations. Applications submitted are reviewed by a panel of experts and accreditation is granted only to those facilities that are found to be providing quality patient care, in compliance with the IAC Vein Center Standards.

The program is widely respected within the medical community, as illustrated by the support of the national medical societies related to superficial venous disorders who each serve as sponsoring organizations:
