Visible Veins?
Bulging or twisted varicose veins aren’t just a cosmetic issue — they’re often a visible sign of underlying venous disease.
Symptoms like aching, heaviness, swelling, or fatigue in the legs may point to circulation problems that deserve an expert evaluation.
At the Vascular & Vein Center at Gulfcoast Surgeons, our board-certified vascular surgeons specialize in diagnosing and treating vein conditions with modern, minimally invasive options designed to relieve symptoms and improve quality of life.
The first step is simple. Just fill out our FREE Virtual Vein Screening form and find out if treatment may be right for you.
Your legs work hard every day. Make sure your circulation is working just as hard for you.

🩹 Wound Awareness
A wound that won’t heal is more than a skin issue — it can be a warning sign of poor circulation.
Non-healing wounds are often linked to Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) and require prompt evaluation. Without proper blood flow, even small wounds can worsen and lead to serious complications.
At the Vascular & Vein Center at Gulfcoast Surgeons, our board-certified vascular surgeons specialize in PAD diagnosis, advanced treatment, and limb preservation. Early care can make a life-changing difference.
If you or a loved one has a wound that isn’t healing, don’t wait.
Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT): Know the Signs. Act Early.
DVT is a blood clot that forms in a deep vein—most often in the leg. It can be serious if left untreated, especially if the clot travels to the lungs.
Common symptoms may include:
• Leg swelling (often one-sided)
• Pain or tenderness in the calf or thigh
• Warmth or redness of the skin
• Unexplained leg discomfort after travel, surgery, or prolonged sitting
Some people have no symptoms at all, which is why awareness matters.
At the Vascular & Vein Center at Gulfcoast Surgeons, our board-certified vascular specialists use non-invasive ultrasound imaging to quickly evaluate concerns and determine next steps.
If something doesn’t feel right, trust your instincts. Early evaluation can make all the difference.

Realistic Benefits. Real Relief.
Genicular Artery Embolization (G*E) isn’t a cure for osteoarthritis—but for the right patients, it can significantly reduce knee pain and improve daily function.
If chronic knee pain is limiting your ability to walk, climb stairs, or enjoy everyday life, this minimally invasive option may be worth exploring.
No joint replacement. No hospital stay. Just a thoughtful evaluation to see if G*E is right for you.

Why Walking Hurts - Understanding PAD
If your legs hurt when you walk but feel better when you rest, that’s a classic warning sign of Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD).
When arteries become narrowed, your muscles don’t get enough oxygen — so they burn, cramp, or ache during activity. Once you stop walking, the pain eases because the muscles no longer have to work against restricted blood flow.
The good news? PAD is highly treatable, and early evaluation can prevent symptoms from getting worse.
If you’re noticing leg pain, tightness, heaviness, or having to stop frequently while walking, it’s time to get checked.
📞 Call 877-LEG-PAIN to schedule a PAD evaluation today.

Night leg cramps keeping you awake?
They’re more than just inconvenient — they can be a common sign of Chronic Venous Insufficiency (CVI).
When the veins in your legs aren’t working properly, blood can pool and create symptoms like:
• Nighttime cramping
• Tightness or throbbing
• Restless, achy legs
• Heavy or fatigued legs by the end of the day
The good news? CVI is treatable.
If you’re waking up with cramps, it may be time to get your veins checked. Our team can help you find answers and get relief.
👉 Call 877-LEG-PAIN to schedule your vein screening.
