Yoga for vascular health

Free online screening for vascular conditions

Pinellas Vascular is committed to the care and treatment of all people suffering from vascular conditions. For this reason, we offer a 100% free, 100% confidential online screening that is reviewed and evaluated by a vascular surgeon.

Our no-obligation online screening will help you to understand your condition, and if you decide to become a patient, will allow us to consider your condition and treatment options before you see the doctor.

Trust a Board Certified Vascular Surgeon

Dr. Avianne Bunnell is a Board Certified Vascular Surgeon who is trained and committed to providing the highest quality of care for every patient. What sets Dr. Bunnell apart from other vascular surgeons is that board-certified vascular surgeons complete a residency in vascular surgery and pass the American Board of Surgery (ABS) Vascular Surgery Certification Exam. This certification ensures they meet the highest standards of knowledge and skill.

Not all surgeons are board certified. Board certification by the ABS is a voluntary process that demonstrates a surgeon’s commitment to professionalism, lifelong learning, and quality patient care. Surgeons certified by the ABS have completed at least five years of residency training following medical school, met all ABS training requirements, and successfully completed a rigorous ABS examination process.

Board Certified Vascular Surgeon Dr. Bunnell Performing Laser Vein Removal

Varicose Vein Doctor St Pete FL

Here at Pinellas Vascular, our top-rated vascular specialists serving St. Pete, all of Pinellas County and the Tampa Bay area, use the most advanced minimally-invasive vein treatment techniques available anywhere in the world to treat your varicose veins.

First, the deeper malfunctioning veins that are causing your varicose veins must be treated.

Board certified vascular surgeon, Dr. Bunnell uses laser vein removal and Varithena foam injection for treating the deeper malfunctioning veins. These procedures close off the malfunctioning veins so healthy blood flow through your legs can resume.

These state-of-the-art procedures are minimally invasive, low-risk vein treatments that are performed right in our offices.

Once these deeper veins are closed, our vein specialists can use stab phlebectomy to physically remove any remaining bulging veins that are visible.

These procedures are performed under local anesthesia, take under one hour to perform, and allow patients to return to their normal daily activities within 24 hours.

Take the First Step Toward Varicose Vein-Free Living

If you or a loved one is starting to notice spider veins or varicose veins on the legs, and experiencing leg cramps, or leg swelling, it is most likely due to venous insufficiency.

Venous insufficiency is the underlying cause of varicose veins. At Pinellas Vascular we can treat your venous insufficiency and put an end to your unsightly and uncomfortable varicose veins.

Don’t let varicose veins interfere with your daily activities and rob you from doing the things you enjoy.

Board certified vascular surgeon Dr. Bunnell has the expertise to help remove your varicose veins, put an end to your leg discomfort, and help improve your overall quality of life.
