Hi, I have always had this big vein in my leg but the appearance is getting worse as I getting older. It aches sometimes too, not sure if it can be removed by a laser or if I need surgery. Has anyone else had something like this? Can anyone recommend a doctor? Think I may need a vascular surgeon...

Preethihappy, do you realise you are asking if a Dr is good with insurance fraud? I am sure that any Dr would disclose the findings as he is obliged to do.

Definitely see a vascular surgeon. I strongly recommend Dr Sobeh, he's excellent. I have vascular issues, and having had a consultation with Dr Salti I wouldn't recommend him for anything vascular. I'm sure that he's a perfectly good doctor but he cant come close to Dr Sobeh in that particular specialisation. Thanks, thats great, I have an appointment booked with him next week. Is he good with doing medical reports to help with the insurance? I need him to say I am in pain and will get worse even though I am not really I just dont like the look of it.

Both my legs were really awful and Dr Sobeh in DHCC operated on both (at the same time!) about 6 years ago and still no sign of any return of them just a few spider veins.
