Vascular Solutions

What Vascular Solutions does

Vascular Solutions is a privately held, single-site specialty vein clinic headquartered at 7800 Providence Road, Suite 209, Charlotte, NC. The practice, led by board-certified vascular surgeon Dr. Peter Ford (MD, FACS, RPVI) with 13+ years of experience and supported by physician assistant Kristin Hartman, PA-C, focuses exclusively on diagnosing and treating leg vein conditions in adult patients — including chronic venous insufficiency, varicose and spider veins, leg pain, swelling, cramping, venous ulcers, and ankle discoloration.

The clinic operates a portfolio of minimally invasive treatment modalities: VenaSeal™ (medical adhesive closure), Venclose™ radiofrequency ablation, Varithena® (FDA-approved injectable microfoam), medical and cosmetic sclerotherapy, Cynosure ICON® laser treatment for spider veins, and on-site duplex ultrasound diagnostics. Procedures are supported by adjunct services including patient-controlled Pro-Nox nitrous-oxide anxiety management ($150 per treatment). The practice holds IAC accreditation for vascular testing and has been designated Charlotte's Vein-Center-of-Excellence by Medtronic, with Charlotte Magazine Top Doc recognition in 2018 and 2019.

Vascular Solutions uses a hybrid go-to-market model combining direct-to-consumer marketing (educational blog, Leg Vein Health Quiz, SEO, social media on Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube, and patient testimonials) with a structured B2B physician referral program. Patients can self-schedule via Phreesia online forms, phone, text, or email. Revenue is generated from insurance-reimbursed medically necessary procedures (with Cigna, Aetna, United Healthcare, Anthem, Humana, Medicaid, Medcost, and other carriers accepted) plus self-pay cosmetic sclerotherapy and add-on services, with CareCredit financing available. The website platform is provided by Tebra Technologies, Inc., which is a software vendor rather than a corporate parent.

Expansion highlights4 records

Direct peers

• USA Vein Clinics: National chain of outpatient clinics specializing in the treatment of venous insufficiency and varicose veins using minimally invasive procedures (RFA, VenaSeal, sclerotherapy). Most direct competitor by service mix, modality set, and patient-acquisition model.
• Metro Vein Centers: Multi-location vein clinic group focused exclusively on venous disease, offering RFA, VenaSeal, and sclerotherapy in an outpatient setting. Highly comparable in go-to-market and procedure mix.
• Inovia Vein: Specialty vein clinic network (formerly known as IVC / Inovia Vein Clinics) operating outpatient centers offering RFA, VenaSeal, and sclerotherapy. Directly comparable specialty-focus and treatment portfolio.
• Center for Vein Restoration: One of the largest US physician-led networks of vein restoration clinics, offering the same core modalities (RFA, VenaSeal, Varithena, sclerotherapy) with similar insurance-and-cash-pay model. Closely comparable in clinical scope and patient population.

Others

• Boston Scientific: Vendor of vascular intervention devices and an active participant in the venous and peripheral vascular space. Indirectly comparable as a supplier to specialty vein clinics and as a competitor to Medtronic in the underlying device market.
• Medtronic: Manufacturer of Venclose RF ablation and VenaSeal closure systems used by Vascular Solutions, and the body that designated the practice a 'Vein-Center-of-Excellence'. Not a clinical competitor but the dominant upstream device supplier and an important industry ecosystem participant.

Broad incumbents

• Vein Clinics of America: Established national vein-care brand historically operating a wide footprint of specialty vein clinics. Comparable in service line, though now under different ownership; serves as a benchmark for clinic-level operational scale.
• HCA Healthcare: Large hospital system that operates vascular surgery programs offering similar vein interventions as part of a broader service portfolio. Indirectly competitive for insured patients and physician referrals in the Charlotte market.

Regional players

• Carolina Vein Specialists: Regional, Charlotte-area vein practice offering RFA, sclerotherapy, and other vein treatments to the same patient population. Direct regional competitor for local patients and physician referrals.
• Atrium Health (Advocate Health): Regional hospital system headquartered in Charlotte, NC, that operates vascular surgery programs serving the same metro. Comparable in geography and overlapping patient pool, though offers vein care as part of broader acute-care services.
