Miami Vein Center

Specialties

Varicose veins take away from the beauty and appearance of your legs. Perhaps more importantly, varicose veins produce significant symptoms and can lead to serious medical conditions. The good news is that varicose veins can be removed quickly, with minimal discomfort, in a doctor’s office. There is no need for hospitalization and the recovery time is measured in minutes, not weeks. Almost immediately, you will be able to do all the things you did before you developed varicose veins. While this may sound too good to be true, the expert staff at the Miami Vein Center using clinically proven new technology called endovenous therapy can eliminate your varicose veins with a minimally invasive procedure in the comfort and security of our office. The procedure takes about 45 minutes and the recovery period is about 10 minutes. In about an hour you can be free of your varicose veins. You will be able to return to normal activities the very next day.

History

Established in 1998.

Thomas Baker, MD and Howard Gordon, MD began what was soon to be recognized as a world renowned plastic surgery center of excellence. They began the practice of office-​based plastic surgery after they built on to the existing facility. They held the annual Baker Gordon Symposium which drew thousands of plastic surgeons around the world, and held extravagant receptions on the office property by the pool area. Miami Vein Center purchased the building in 2003 and completely remodeled and modernized it. It is home to 7 large exam rooms, 2 state-​of-​the-​art operating rooms, and multiple administrative offices, library, etc. Dr. Almeida has a 100% office-​based vein surgery practice at this location. In keeping with the Baker tradition, Dr. Almeida is organizer of the International Vein Congress (IVC), now in its 6^th year. Doctors from around the world experience new technology through live webcasts of cutting edge procedures as they are performed at Miami Vein Center.
