Vein Center of North Texas

What Vein Center of North Texas does

The Vein Center of North Texas is a single-site, physician-owned specialty medical practice located in Sherman, Texas, founded in 2005 by Dr. Clint Hayes. The practice diagnoses and treats venous disorders — including chronic venous insufficiency, varicose and spider veins, deep vein thrombosis, venous leg ulcers, and related symptoms such as leg pain, swelling, restless legs syndrome, and nocturnal cramps — for adult patients across Northeast Texas and Southeast Oklahoma.

The practice's clinical technology stack centers on duplex and Doppler ultrasound for diagnosis and treatment mapping, combined with a portfolio of minimally invasive endovenous procedures: VenaSeal cyanoacrylate adhesive closure, ClosureFast radiofrequency ablation, EVLT endovenous laser ablation, Varithena injectable foam, ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy, ambulatory microphlebectomy, and spider vein cosmetic sclerotherapy, with traditional vein stripping retained as a rare fallback. All procedures are performed in-office under local or tumescent anesthesia.

Commercially, the practice generates revenue through two streams: insurance/Medicare reimbursement for medically necessary procedures (determined by Dr. Hayes at initial consultation) and patient-pay out-of-pocket payments for cosmetic sclerotherapy. Patient acquisition runs through the practice website, Google Business listings, Facebook/Instagram, patient testimonials, and referrals from primary care, emergency, and wound care physicians — including a formal collaboration with the Texoma Medical Center Wound Center. The Athena Health Patient Portal supports scheduling and record access. There is no indication of external investment, multiple locations, or institutional ownership.

Revenue model

1. Medical Procedures - Insurance Reimbursed: The practice generates revenue primarily through reimbursement from Medicare and health insurance plans for medically necessary vein treatments and procedures. Dr. Hayes determines medical necessity at the initial consultation. Procedures covered include treatments for venous insufficiency, large varicose veins, DVT, and related conditions that cause debilitating symptoms.
2. Cosmetic Procedures - Patient Pay: Spider vein treatments are considered cosmetic and not covered by insurance. Patients pay out-of-pocket for sclerotherapy and other cosmetic procedures to treat spider veins.

Functional benefit

Products and services

• Ultrasound Lab Diagnostic ultrasound imaging service that visualizes veins and blood flow to detect blood clots, map veins for treatment, and assess venous insufficiency and varicose veins using venous ultrasound and Doppler ultrasound technologies, intended for patients with suspected venous disorders.
• VenaSeal™ Endovenous adhesive closure technique using medical adhesive (cyanoacrylate) to seal closed the inner lining of diseased saphenous veins; FDA approved February 2015, takes approximately 20 minutes with minimal postoperative downtime and 95%+ long-term success rates, intended for patients with chronic venous insufficiency.
• ClosureFast™ / Radiofrequency Ablation Endovenous radiofrequency ablation technique that segmentally heats saphenous vein lining to 120°C to shrink and seal the vein wall closed; FDA approved in 1999, takes approximately 30 minutes with 90-95% long-term success rates, intended for patients with venous insufficiency and varicose veins.
• EVLT / EndoVenous Laser Ablation Minimally invasive gold-standard procedure using laser heat delivered via catheter to treat chronic venous insufficiency and varicose veins by closing off affected veins; FDA approved 2002, with patients typically returning to work within one day.
• Varithena Sclerosing agent made of polidocanol injectable foam that collapses diseased varicose veins; treatment takes approximately 30 minutes, addresses symptoms including achiness, swelling, and heaviness in the legs without requiring anesthesia, intended for patients with superficial varicose veins.
• Ultrasound-Guided Sclerotherapy Treatment using ultrasound guidance to inject a foaming chemical solution into varicose veins, causing the vein lining to destroy, swell, stick together, and reduce in size; takes approximately 15 minutes with multiple sessions two weeks apart, intended for patients with varicose veins.
• Spider Vein Cosmetic Sclerotherapy Minimally invasive cosmetic procedure injecting sclerosant solution with a microscopic needle into spider veins, causing them to seal and be reabsorbed by the body; 50-90% improvement expected, no compression stockings required post-treatment, intended for cosmetic treatment of spider veins.
• Ambulatory Microphlebectomy Minimally invasive surgical procedure removing superficial varicose veins through small skin incisions; uses local anesthesia and allows quicker recovery than traditional vein stripping by preserving functioning veins for faster healing, intended for patients with superficial varicose veins.
• Vein Stripping Surgical procedure that surgically removes varicose veins from legs and thighs using techniques including ligation (tying off veins), avulsion (excision through small incisions), and ablation (heating veins); now used only rarely when endovenous techniques are impossible, intended for patients where minimally invasive options are not viable.
• Conservative Measures Non-invasive first-line treatment approach for venous conditions including compression stockings, diet and exercise management, position changes and leg raises, and lifestyle modifications to manage symptoms and slow disease progression, intended for patients with mild venous conditions or as a precursor to procedural treatment.
