Top Rated Vein Clinic in Bucks County

Exceptional experience.
I was very nervous about the procedure, as I'm sure anyone would be.
I have had both legs done,i am very happy with the results.
My legs feel better.
I would absolutely recommend going for a consult and finding out for yourself
I have now had 3 RFA treatments and one sclerotherapy shot. Skin color and over all feeling in my legs is much improved. Mary is with you every step of the way whether an Ultrasound or an ablation and will assist with any of your questions. Wish I had come in even sooner. Well done
Doctor Kowalski was amazing!! He explained everything in the procedure room so there were no surprises. I highly recommend this office. As far as anyone giving them lower than a 5 star. The patient must of woke up on the wrong side of the bed. These guys were very professional . Thx again! 😊
Everything went nice and smooth. I saw Dr as a new patient and 1 1/2 week later had my 1st treatment of RF Ablation of vein which I desparately for health purposes needed to be done ASAP. Wow that time frame impressed me and i will certainly go to this practice for any future health concerns. The Dr. and staff were all great.
My experiences with Dr. Kowalski have been great. He has taken care of deep varicose veins and also those I wanted gone for cosmetic reasons. Very successful! The staff is terrific and the office runs on time. I had a good understanding of what he was doing and why. Highly recommend him.
Dr. Kowalski and his staff are terrific. Dr. Kowalski took the time to explain his diagnosis, what potential treatment options there were and the risks/benefits of treatment. The nurses also do a great job of explaining each step - from doing a diagnostic ultrasound, to prep for procedure and post procedure instructions. They are about an hour from me and on my first visit for an evaluation they accommodated space on the schedule to also complete an ultrasound so that I would not have to return an additional time just for that. My RFA procedures went smoothly. I had no pain during or following the procedure. Follow-up has been great and I am quite pleased with the outcome thus far.
If you are considering vein treatment of any kind, I’d highly recommend Dr. Kowlaski and his team.

Had my post-procedure ultrasound and Mary completed the test, took the time to explain the follow-up and answer my questions. It’s been about 4 weeks since the RFA; the recovery has been easy and my legs feel great.
Dr. Kowalski and his staff are outstanding! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with a warm, friendly atmosphere that instantly puts you at ease. The office is impeccably clean, and the care provided is top-notch. Dr. Kowalski takes the time to listen, explain, and ensure you're comfortable throughout the visit. Highly recommend!
I was very satisfied with my initial consultation with Dr. Kawalski to discuss treatment for my leg veins. He explained my future treatments thoroughly . Also, the medical associates in his office are very professional and kind, from the scheduling of appointments to the thoroughness of the ultrasound technician.
I have been a patient of Dr. Kowalski ‘s Center for Vein Medicine for several years. I am pleased to recommend his practice as he has provided me with much information and services that have enhanced my health. His team is also knowledgeable and very skilled. I was there most recently for an ultrasound, done by Mary Tamac. She was very proficient and then informative, explaining what needed to be done and a plan for accomplishing it. For me, a compassionate supportive professional is at least as important as their ability to do the job. I certainly found that at The Center for Vein Medicine.
Dr. Kowalski and Nurse Jackie were pleasant, efficient, and concerned for my comfort during my RFA procedure. They explained the procedure and what to expect both during and over the days following. I have no doubt that the same will happen when I return for my next procedure.
I am extremely grateful for the outstanding care I received at Kowalski surgical center. Dr. Kowalski, Mary Takac and their team have set a standard for vein care. Thank you for your dedication to your patients for making my health and wellbeing a priority.
I have been very pleased with the results thus far with my vein treatments. After many years of thick varicose veins, my legs are now less achy and look much better as well. Dr Kowalski and his office staff are very courteous and professional, taking time to explain the procedures along the way. Appointments start on time , a big plus to me.
About two weeks ago, I had a consultation with Dr. Kowalski concerning a repair of a hernia. Dr. Kowalski clearly described the surgery and post operative recovery. He was friendly and comfortably answered all my questions. Four years ago, Dr. Kowalski performed another surgery on me. I have a lot of confidence in the Dr.
Dr. Kowalski and his staff are top Knotch the best! Staff is so friendly and helpful. Dr. Kowalski is very knowledgeable on veins and is happy to answer all questions you have. I had vein removal done for the first time, searched for hours online about it and looked at several different locations to have the procedure done. Once I came across BC Center for Vein medicine I felt more comfortable knowing a Doctor would be completing this procedure.
So happy with my decision and you will too!
Dr Kowalski and office staff are great! Highly recommend. The procedure was done in the very clean, new and modern office. It was Painless and quick . The receptionist, ultrasound and nurse were all respectful and efficient ! I never had to wait in the waiting area more than a few minutes. Great job guys!
Five stars for Dr. Kowalski and his team. My bilateral inguinal hernia surgery went very well, no complications and very little pain. I am on my way to complete recovery. Thank you Dr. Kowalski for your excellent skills and experience! Robert Kucharski

Answers for common vein questions

Frequently Asked Questions

In your leg, you have two sets of veins. They are called deep veins and superficial veins.

Deep veins are in the deeper part of the leg where the muscles are, and superficial veins are right under the skin.

In a normal person, the blood circulates from the feet toward the heart in both veins.

When someone has venous insufficiency, the blood will go up the deep veins and back into the superficial vein.

The blood will start pooling in the superficial veins.

Since the superficial veins are closest to the skin, they will bulge and create varicose veins. They are often bluish or purple.

Spider Veins are essentially a smaller version of varicose veins. They are red, purple, and blue vessels that are also twisted and turning. They are most often seen on the legs, chest, or face.

No. Varicose veins can occur deeper in the leg, where one can’t see them. Varicose veins are classified under the spectrum of venous insufficiency disease.

Venous insufficiency disease causes leg discomfort, swelling of the ankles and leg, itching, and weariness. Other signs and symptoms may be prickling, cramping, aching, and heaviness of the lower limbs after prolonged standing.

Keep an eye out for these symptoms besides simply visible veins.

In short, no. Exercise and compression stockings may help reduce some of the symptoms of varicose veins, but usually, only medical treatment can eliminate a varicose vein.

Progression of varicose veins can be dangerous as they may later become venous ulcerations. When left without treatment, complications may include rashes, infections, bleeding, sores, and blood clots.

In rare cases, varicose veins can cause deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism, which is life-threatening.

1) Consult – We start you with a consultation where you will be listened to and encounter a friendly staff that will ensure you get the best care. On the first visit, that care will come from our expertly trained team, including Dr. Kowalski and an ultrasonographer.

2) Ultra Sound – After the consult, we move on to the assessment, providing you with an accurate diagnosis. You will get the same-day ultrasound and results on-site while you see the provider. This will get you back to life as swiftly as possible.

3) Treatment Plan – After we conclude our assessment, we will provide you with a treatment plan.

There are many different options, such as Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA), sclerotherapy, pneumatic compression, and more. We will ensure you get the perfect customized treatment based on your needs and outcome goals.

It is normal to have some minor discomfort during the procedure. We will do everything we can to make this as relaxing and comfortable an experience as possible. After the procedure, patients may experience minor bruising or discomfort in the area of the treated vein, which normally resolves in 3-4 weeks. Overall, patients report minimal pain/discomfort and can go back to doing the things they love.

Patients usually return to work and activities on the very same day. Very little downtime is needed for our treatments.
