It's NOT Cosmetic - Skin Changes, "Cellulitis", and Venous Ulcers in Venous Reflux Disease

It's not our fault. We are not taught much, if anything, about venous disease in our med schools or residencies. In this session, gain actionable information and guidance to not only recognize venous disease in your patients, but an understanding that the vast majority of venous disease in our patients is NOT cosmetic. Learn how to guide your patients quickly to proper evaluation and safe, cost-effective treatment that improves quality of life and helps prevent more costly, debilitating medical problems.

Objectives:

• Recognize venous disease in our patients in its many stages, especially more advanced stages
• Understand that venous reflux disease is a medical condition that must be treated as such
• Understand how venous disease is diagnosed and treated in 2025 to better educate and guide your patients to optimal outcomes
