The Oregon Health & Science University Vein Clinic, part of OHSU Vascular Surgery, is located at Portland’s South Waterfront. Our team of Board-certified vascular surgeons evaluates and treats a variety of venous disorders, including varicose veins, spider veins and chronic venous insufficiency.

We use state-of-the-art lasers, the latest in sclerotherapy techniques, and minimally invasive surgical procedures such as endovenous laser treatment and microphlebectomy to provide optimal outcomes with little downtime. Our surgeons Dr. Tim Liem, Dr. Robert McLafferty and Dr. Khanh Nguyen are nationally recognized for research and conduct numerous clinical trials each year that lead to advancements in venous medicine.

All our procedures are performed in an accredited medical and surgical facility and most are completed in our offices. We welcome the opportunity to meet with you to discuss a plan of care that addresses your priorities.
