Before and After

OUR NEW SAGINAW OFFICE IS NOW OPEN!!!  CALL 249-VEIN FOR AN APPOINTMENT.

Welcome to the Michigan Vein Institute. Our goal is to provide the finest and most advanced vein treatment services available anywhere in the United States today.

Michigan Vein Institute is the foremost Laser and Vein Treatment facility in the Northern Lower Penninsula and Eastern Upper Penninsula of Michigan providing comprehensive vein care unsurpassed in the State of Michigan.  From your treating physician to the nursing staff everyone at MVI is extensively trained in vein treatment and specializes in Phlebology.  We are committed to excellent patient care and educating Michigan patients and their medical providers about the exciting new advancements in our specialty of Phlebology, the treatment of venous disease.  During our consultations each patient is educated about the causes of vein disease, the anatomy and physiology involved, the various options for treatment, and how to help prevent disease progression.  Each patient is given a  personalized folder with information on their treatment options and diagnosis and procedure codes that can be used to verify insurance coverage for their treatment.  Dr. Benson also provides instruction to other physicians on a number of topics related to vein treatment.

Comprehensive varicose vein treatment is provided at all four locations in Traverse City, Saginaw, Gaylord, and Alpena.  The Traverse City Vein Clinic serves all of western Michigan including Ludington, Manistee, Big Rapids, Cadillac, Kalkaska, Charlevoix, and Petoskey.  The Gaylord Vein Clinic serves the I-75 corridor of northern Michigan including Houghton Lake, Mount Pleasant, West Branch, Grayling, Mackinaw City, Saint Ignace, Sault Ste. Marie, and Newberry.  The Alpena Vein Clinic serves eastern Michigan including Tawas City, Oscoda, Rogers City, Cheboygan, Hillman, and Harrisville.  THE SAGINAW OFFICE IS NOW OPEN serving Bay City, Midland, Saginaw, Flint and neighboring communities.
 
Whether you live in Detroit, Lansing, Grand Rapids, Muskegon, Mount Pleasant, Cadillac, Sault Ste. Marie, or Newberry it's only a two hour drive or less to the nearest Michigan Vein Institute location. (Sorry, Ironwood and Bruce Crossing are still out of our reach.)
 
Appointments for all offices can be made by calling our toll-free number 877-MI-VEINS or 877-648-3467.

 

 

Comprehensive vein treatment is our specialty. Our services include the latest non-surgical vein treatments including:

Most treatment is covered by insurance and most insurance plans are accepted.  We are in-network for Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Community Blue PPO, Blue Preferred PPO, Blue Care Network, PPOM, Priority Health, and Medicare.

 

The American Medical Association officially designated Phlebology (the medical study and treatment of vein disease) as a distinct medical subspecialty in November 2005.  We are proud to announce that our medical director, Peter Benson, M.D. is the first physician in the United States officially recognized by the AMA as a Registered Phebology Specialist or Phebologist.

According to the AMA registry, as of March 31, 2007, Dr. Benson is still the only Phlebologist in the State of Michigan.
