Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

If you need any help, you really need to come here. Everyone is so nice and the experience is so great!

I saw Dr. Malone for terrible varicose veins in my right leg that were a gift from my daughter who is now 19. At my first appointment he discovered that my left leg needed attention as well, and the Closure Fast procedure was performed on both. I elected to have the procedure for both legs performed without medication and felt minimal pain due to Dr. Malone's expertise. I highly recommend him!

From my first visit I felt like I was understood and they cared. I have had years of pain in my legs without much relief. The surgery exceeded my expectations! Instant relief! I could not be happier with my results.

I appreciate his willingness to work with my unique circumstances (driving from out of state to be seen) and schedule appointments/procedures in a manner that would limit the number of visits needed. I had confidence and trust in his expertise to address and correct my unsightly veins in my legs. I am also a BIG FAN of the entire team here. I felt like everyone here knew my specific circumstances and case each time I came in or called with a question. Everyone was attentive and I was confident in every answer I was given. Based on my experience I would definitely refer a friend here.

From the first consultation to the last check-up at 6 months, my experience with the whole staff was great! Everything was explained well and the actual procedure was very easy. A couple of months after the procedure my husband and I could clearly see the difference in the veins on my leg. They were so much better! We could not be happier with the results. I highly recommend Dr. Malone and his staff.
