Weill Cornell Vein Treatment Center is dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of venous disease with a large role in treating varicose and/or spider veins in addition to specific vein problems including vein related pelvic pain and acute/chronic deep vein thrombosis.
Founded in 1998, the Weill Cornell Vein Treatment Center has consistently been recognized as one of the leading vein care centers in the world. These providers have been a strong part of product development and treatment options for all types of vein disease. Our physicians, including Dr. Lisa Amatangelo, Dr. Neil M. Khilnani, Dr. Kimberly Scherer, and Dr. Ronald Winokur, are all full-time faculty members at Weill Cornell Medicine, board certified physicians by the American Board of Medical Specialists (ABMS) and have completed advanced training leading to sub specialization of practice in venous conditions. They are on the medical staff of the New York-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medicine, which is consistently rated the best hospital in New York City and in the top ten in the United States by the US News & World Report.
Consultations for all types of vein conditions and treatments for varicose and/or spider veins are done at our outpatient office: Weill Cornell Vein Treatment Center, located at 2315 Broadway (at 84th Street).

State of the art diagnostic and treatment procedures are utilized in the appropriate combinations to get the best results while minimizing side effects and down time. Endovenous Laser Ablation (also known as EVLT or ELA) was developed by Dr. Robert Min at Weill Cornell Vein Treatment Center and has become one of the most commonly used approaches to treating patients with varicose veins internationally. As a result, the physicians at the Weill Cornell Vein Treatment Center have the longest experience using this technique in the world. As leaders in the field of vein care, we are among the first centers to use new technologies for non-thermal (“no heat”) closure of varicose veins. These include Venaseal™, Varithena™, and Clarivein™.
Highly specialized care for patients with all types of venous conditions including venous origin chronic pelvic pain (aka pelvic congestion syndrome), deep vein conditions including May Thurner Syndrome, chronic vein conditions from blockages after prior deep vein thrombosis are a part of our comprehensive vein care practice.
Where you go first for your care has a significant impact on the outcome of your condition. Weill Cornell Vein Treatment Center has a long history of success and is dedicated to making sure that you get the correct diagnosis leading to the safest and most effective minimally invasive treatments available.
