Dr. Edwards is pleased to offer the VNUS ClosureŽ Procedure, an alternative treatment option to traditional vein stripping surgery of the legs. The Closure procedure is a clinically proven, minimally invasive way to treat venous reflux, the underlying cause of varicose veins of the legs, with little or no pain. Closure patients can return to everyday activities within a day. The Closure procedure is performed in the doctors' office and is covered by most insurance providers. For more information on the Closure procedure please contact our office or send email to VNUS@hdllc.org. In addition, Sclerotherapy treatments are available to help resolve small unsightly spider veins. Dr. Edwards is a certified instrument rated pilot and has logged over 500 hours of flight time. He is a member of the General Aviation Committee at the Columbus Metropolitan Airport. He enjoys traveling with his wife, Joy Lynn, and his two daughters, Madison and Alyssa, in their airplane.
