WELCOME TO
VEIN CENTER FOR WOMEN
The Vein Center for Women was started as a part of Dr. Surya's practice in 2003, and since then has grown into a center that has provided treatment for many patients who come from Middlesex, Monmouth, Ocean, and from other places in NJ. Most patients refer their friends, local physicians refer patients and patients search online and come in to see us. We have maintained a 5-star rating all these years without fail by providing good service to all our patients. Close to 98% of new patients seen in the center, decide to stay and complete treatment with us and are happy with their results and experience.
