Our Practice

We understand that every patient has unique needs and circumstances and we are committed to addressing your individual treatment.

The entire staff has one mission: To ensure that the best possible care is provided to all of our varicose vein and spider vein patients.  We encourage our patients to engage in an open dialougue with Dr. Garg and staff and look over the different research articles and studies we provide to you in your patient folder. Your consultation and treatment will be done by Dr. Garg or Dr. Ashpole; not another physician, physician assistant, technologist, or nurse practicioner.

Dr. Garg is one of only a handful of Illinois physicians certified by the American Board of Phlebology and he continues to pursue the latest in phlebology training to stay at the top of his field. His expertise in treating varicose veins has been featured on WGN TV, CLTV Chicago, WCIU, The Chicago Tribune, and other local media outlets. Dr. Ashpole is a board certified Plastic and Reconstructive surgeon.

The support staff at Veins Without Surgery P.C includes:

• Registered Nurse
• Medical Assistants
• Registered Vascular Technologist
• Medical Secretaries
• Insurance billing specialists

Insurance information

Since varicose veins are considered a medical disease, most insurance carriers, including medicare, will cover your treatment if your condition is symptomatic. Our practice is in network with the majority of insurance companies in the area. Our professional insurance specialists will be actively involved in your treatment from obtaining pre-authorization for medically necessary tests and procedures to ensuring we utilize all the benefits in your specific plan.

Consultation fees

If you have a symptomatic varicose vein disease (common symptoms include pain, skin irritation, swelling, restless legs, discoloration, bleeding from the veins, skin breakdown and ulceration, etc) then your initial consultation will be covered by most insurance plans and medicare. HMO's and public aid do not cover this treatment. Our staff will file the paperwork to your insurance company and you will be responsible for co pays and deductibles.

For those who are uninsured or underinsured, we provide a "pay at the time of service" discount of up to 50% for consultation and treatment. Patients with high deductibles may also feel free to choose this option. We also offer short and long term interest-free financing. Please give us a call at 630-369-6644 if you would like more information.

Out of town patients

Our facility has treated patients all across Illinois and its neighboring states. We can assist you with your travel needs and provide hotel reccomendations close to our offices. We can also provide transportation services on the day of the procedure for patients experiencing driving or physical limitations. We understand that the weather and parking in downtown Chicago can seem intimidating, so we offer free valet parking at the Chicago clinic.
