Walking Farther and Feeling Better with Every Step
This patient came to United Vein & Vascular Centers in Downers Grove after noticing changes in her legs that were affecting both her comfort and confidence. She found herself needing to sit down frequently, often after just a few minutes of standing or walking. Her legs also felt swollen and puffy, which made daily activities more difficult and impacted how she felt about their appearance.
After evaluation, Wendy R. began treatment with vein injection therapy, starting a series of minimally invasive procedures designed to improve circulation and reduce her symptoms.
Even early in the process, Wendy has already noticed meaningful improvements. She says she is now able to walk longer distances and stand for extended periods without needing to stop and rest as often.
These changes have had a positive impact on her daily life. Wendy shared that she has more energy throughout the day and can stay active and keep up with her routine more easily. She also noted improvements in how her legs look, helping her feel more comfortable overall.
Wendy described her experience with Dr. Sebai and the Downers Grove team as excellent, highlighting their friendliness, knowledge, and willingness to answer any questions along the way. For anyone considering treatment, she recommends starting with an evaluation to better understand what’s going on.
