Dr. Craig L. Iwamoto’s extensive training and impressive credentials make him the area expert in the diagnosis and treatment of vein problems, including varicose veins and spider veins. Dr Iwamoto uses the most advanced technology to diagnose and treat vein problems, including duplex ultrasound that helps him see damaged veins hidden from view. After a thorough examination, Dr. Craig L. Iwamoto may suggest one of many non- or minimally-invasive treatments, such as VNUS Closure – considered the gold standard of varicose vein treatment – or ambulatory phlebectomy for bulging varicose veins lying near the surface of the skin. This vein surgeon can also perform schlerotherapy to treat tiny spider veins on the face, neck, chest, or legs, and transdermal laser treatments to reduce particularly small spider veins.
