Understanding your capabilities and advantages as an MD or DO performing sclerotherapy treatments.
As licensed physicians (MD/DO), you have the broadest scope of practice for sclerotherapy procedures. You can independently perform all vein treatment procedures without supervision, prescribe medications for complications, order diagnostic ultrasounds, and delegate to other providers under your medical direction. Your medical degree provides the foundation to offer comprehensive vein treatment services.
Add a high-margin service line to your existing practice with sclerotherapy treatments that patients pay for out-of-pocket.
Delegate sclerotherapy treatments to NPs, PAs, and RNs under your medical supervision. Scale your vein treatment practice while maintaining quality oversight.
Most physicians recoup their course investment within the first few weeks. Sclerotherapy requires minimal equipment and supplies to get started.
Whether you're in family medicine, internal medicine, dermatology, vascular surgery, plastic surgery, or any other specialty—you can add sclerotherapy to your practice. Many physicians diversify their services to meet patient demand for cosmetic vein treatments.
