I'm not too happy about Joe right now. He recommended procedures on my varicose veins to prevent "throwing off a blood clot." The procedures were painful. My veins are worse than ever. I consulted with a vascular surgeon who said these procedures were unnecessary. As part of the procedure, Joe destroyed a vein that a heart surgeon would have wanted to use if I ever needed bypass surgery. Both my parents had heart disease, which is in my medical-history file, so Joe should have known that. He overmedicated me with a painkiller to a point where I was throwing up and unable to walk. I need to find out how extensive his training was to perform these vein procedures. Possibly only a weekend certification workshop. Before you agree to having any vein procedures with Joe, consult with a vascular surgeon to make sure they are necessary.
