my.clevelandclinic.org says a vascular surgeon or vascular specialist usually performs endovenous thermal ablation in an office-based setting.

Other vein treatments you may read about

You may see another approach mentioned in your reading. The Cleveland Clinic page on varicose vein stripping and ligation describes one. The MedlinePlus page on varicose veins and spider veins gives general background on the vein problems involved, and so does the Cleveland Clinic page on spider veins.

One simple next step

Read the Society of Interventional Radiology page on superficial venous disease and chronic venous insufficiency, then write down any questions about who will treat you. A reader in Frankfort can bring that list to the first visit.
