History of Vein Institute of Connecticut

Vein Institute is known for innovative, service-based and top-of-the-line quality care performed in a boutique office setting. The practice was founded in 2008 by Alireza Afshar, M.D. when the first clinic opened in Newtown, CT. Dr. Afshar’s passion for the treatment of vein disease and the large need in the community has allowed Vein Institute to grow in order to offer minimally invasive vein treatments in convenient locations.

Vein Institute’s second clinic opened in 2010 in Ridgefield, CT and operated there until 2013, when the clinic moved to Fairfield, CT. Since then, Vein Institute has expanded in Connecticut to include clinics in Westport and Shelton. The fifth location will open in Avon, CT in early 2020.

Vein Solutions Based on Your Medical Condition

Vein Institute is committed to providing patients with the most advanced, out-patient, office-based procedures available in a well-established, safe and friendly environment. These procedures are currently being used throughout the United States and the world to help treat the most challenging of venous disorders – and Vein Institute is a leading provider of these services.

At Vein Institute of Connecticut, we will never make a treatment recommendation without determining the underlying cause of your vein problem.

While problem veins can look similar, the conditions that cause them are not identical. We will thoroughly explain our diagnosis, your treatment options and costs so you have the information you need to decide on the right solution for your lifestyle and budget.

Once your treatment is over, we will follow-up with you annually to make sure you continue to enjoy a positive medical outcome and remain in good health.

We take pride in our reputation for ethics and honesty as well as in the outstanding results we can offer you.

We welcome the opportunity to give you back the legs you used to love.
