This is the greatest Dr. Office of all time. The people are so nice and the procedures are pretty much pain free. I had what I thought was the world's worst varicose veins and they had gotten to the point of really painful. Guess what, not any more. I'm in the recovery process and I don't like to go to doctors offices at all but I enjoyed going here read more

I have never been so impressed as I am with my treatment here at La Jolla Vein. They are so kind, compassionate, gentle, and reassuring, I have had terrible varicose sincerely my daughter was born 48 years ago. The doctors here are so knowledgeable and my legs feel and look better than they ever have. I would highly recommend La Jolla Vein for anyone's treatment. read more

I am not sure what happened to this office, how they went from the best experience to the worst. I have been trying to schedule my next appointment since the very beginning of December 2025. Called multiple times and left a voicemail but never got a call back. One time spoke to the front office and was told someone will call me to schedule an appointment but again no one called. Which is strange because never before I had to get a call from someone else to schedule an appointment it was always the front office who took care of it. Finally reached someone in mid January. I was told the price changed as of January. I let them know that I have been trying to make an appointment since December. The girl at the front office proceeded to lie that they were not really performing the procedure during the price change. I asked to get a manager on the line and she apologized and offered a discount for my next procedure and made my appointment a month out. Days before my appointment I get a call saying the provider who was going to perform the procedure is not ready to provide it for another 2-3 month. WHAT!?!?! I have been coming here since 2021 but will not be coming back. It is sad to see a place I trusted go down like that. read more

I am so impressed with La Jolla Vein & Vascular! In August I had a Superficial Phlebitis behind my knee that was a little scary.... They got me in right away and did an Ultrasound to confirm that I did not have a Blood Clot, so I was safe to travel. They are now my go to for issues I am have with my legs. Everyone from front desk to Clinicians have been amazing! read more

Stopped in here today for an appt - very clean and comfortable. Jessica, my ultrasound tech, was full of knowledge and very professional! Thank you for great care. read more

I transferred here from CVISD where they would not show me my ultrasound prior to treating. The experience getting started here was great, and they were super responsive. They told me they would provide online access to ultrasound scans -- where CVISD wouldn't even let me take photos or video while it was in process! Dr. Steinberger must be one of the friendliest doctors I've ever had the pleasure to work with. She doesn't make you feel rushed in any way, answers all questions, and goes above and beyond explaining things. You can tell that her heart is in it, which matters a lot in my opinion. All of the staff are very outgoing and friendly. The atmosphere in the office is very nice and modern, Liz (the receptionist) is very friendly, and the parking lot is large enough that you'll always find somewhere to park. You definitely won't regret getting started here. read more

LOVE my experience at this clinic! Anna immediately puts you at ease, welcoming you more as a social call than an intimidating procedure. Emily and Liz are also so sweet and knowledgeable! Dr Steinberger is a rockstar, laser focused yet so personable. Besides the staff I'm extremely pleased with my results and the ease of working thru my insurance. I wholeheartedly recommend this wonderful team to anyone in pursuit of improved vein health. read more

Dr. Foghi and his entire team are great!

Everyone has been so friendly and walked me through the process every step of the way. read more

There has not been one person in the entire office who has not been caring, respectful, and helpful. I more than highly recommend LaJolla Vein and Vascular clinic. Dr. Steinberger made me feel so comfortable. Just a big hug and thank you to everyone! read more

Dr. Steinberger was awesome! She is thorough, friendly and professional.. great bedside manner. She explained everything well and there was no pressure to get anything done. Haley in the front office is also great and very friendly. I would trust La Jolla Vein with all my vein care needs! read more

Don't waste your time & MONEY. I have been coming for a couple years now to see Dr. DeYoung for my venous reflux and he was wonderful, along with his staff. I just saw a new doctor, Dr Steinberger, and my experience wasn't as pleasant. Instead of her addressing some of the concerns & symptoms I am still having, she was dismissive and recommended I go see a laser specialist for cosmetic reasons. That's not the point of why I am seeking "professional" help for my veins. I don't need a med spa type of recommendation. Nice office staff, but I would recommend seeing another doctor who is willing to help to come up with some type of treatment plan and not dismiss your concerns. read more

Anna from La Jolla Vein & Vascular Clinic reached out to me today to rectify the situation. She answered all my questions and I scheduled a new patient appointment. I appreciate the effort to make things right. read more

I don't usually write reviews like this but thought it would be important for others to know. I believe La Jolla Vein Care may be a good option if you just are approved for simple sclerotherapy. That is what I thought I was going in for. I am 42 years old and have a few spider veins that I don't like. After paying $390 for my "Consultation and Ultrasound", I was told that I needed Radio Frequency Ablation and was given a quote of $8,500. Because this sounded like more of a medical procedure, I decided to go through my doctors office for a 2nd opinion. I had another consultation and full ultrasound done with Scripps Vein Clinic, where I met with their Chief Vascular Surgeon. (this guy doesn't just treat superficial varicose veins, he specializes in everything vascular, including carotid artery surgery) My point being, they know what they are doing. Scripps did not find any of the "venus insufficiency" that La Jolla Vein Clinic documented and proposed surgery for. My spider veins can be treated with sclerotherapy at a cost of $300 per session. I will most likely need 2 - 4. I'm very grateful that I got a 2nd opinion and didn't risk my health with a surgery that wasn't needed... not to mention the $8,500 they wanted. read more

I am not one to write a review good or bad but the LJ Vein center deserves one. It was a pleasure to deal with them.

They are the best! Dr. Lucas was amazing and listened to my concerns. The entire staff was so professional and kind. I would recommend this group to anyone having vein issues.

I was very pleased with the adjustments that La Jolla Vein Care Clinic made on my forth visit. The staff was very professional and friendly, Dr. Lucas was very patient and explained all procedures that were required very well. Will highly recommend this clinic. read more

I had imaging at the La Jolla office. I loved the office and staff. Dr. Steinberger addressed all of my concerns and treatment options thoroughly. She was very professional. It was well worth the visit. I am familiar with other clinics in the area and this office is definitely THE BEST! I highly recommend this office for all your vein and vascular needs. You will receive honest answers for all your vein and vascular needs. read more

I can say from experience that they figured out why I couldn't walk and my legs were swollen. The doctor and the assistants and the office were kind and caring. Now I'm a new person!!! No swelling or redness and I can walk again. Highly recommend!!! read more

Several yrs ago, I had an immune disorder which required taking tissue from my leg for a biopsy. I warned the doctor that I had many ugly spider veins- When she looked at them, though, she stated that it was her strong opinion that they were Varicose Veins/not spider veins and rec'd an appt with a specialist. Since my legs have really hurt my whole life, despite regular yoga and massages, I took her seriously and asked for a referral. She referred me to La Jolla Vein Specialists/Dr Bunke. The office took my insurance and I am so lucky to have found Dr Bunke. Dr. Bunke is an expert, a super - specialist in varicose vein treatment and other vein/vascular disease issues. She's written a professional, medical textbook on this subject, has many years of experience in treating only vein-related probs and has helped me immensely. The process began with Vascular Imaging which identified Venous Reflux Disease, Varicose Veins and Abnormal Artery growth, among other things. Over the course of several years, my Varicose Veins were treated through several Phlebectomies done in the office and Foam Sclerotherapy to close off some veins (I found out/ in the process, that vein "stripping" and a hospital stay are no longer the protocol for Varicose Vein treatment). After the treatment, I was measured for and wore compression stockings and had to walk, un interrupted for at least 30 minutes(?) a day. While I did have to make a personal commitment to follow through with my end of things, I was happy to. The results have been life- changing. My legs, which hurt me since my 20's, are pain -free. And, the treatment was deemed medically necessary and covered by my insurance. I really felt respected and well treated by all of the staff in the office, especially Anna. She's well - organized, kind and patient in managing scheduling, the insurance process and truly treats patients with the highest regard. Every now and then, I have to go in for a follow-up/ check- up, but I'm pretty much done. My legs are now no longer in constant pain and probably even look better. Dr Bunke and her staff are true gems. I'm so lucky that my other doctor accurately identified my Varicose Veins and referred me to her. They can often be overlooked/ mis - diagnosed by alot of doctors. I'm very grateful to be treated so thoroughly and accurately with the highest expertise. I trust Dr. Burke 100% and highly recommend her and La Jolla Vein Care to anyone with Varicose Vein issues. I know that they also treat cosmetic vein issues but I don't have any experience with that. Given my experience, though, I would expect the same level of expertise with that kind of issue if I ever thought that I needed it read more

I am so glad that I chose La Jolla Vein Care! I had been bothered by spider veins for many years especially since pregnancy. They took great care to do an ultrasound to make sure there were no underlying issues. I had sclerotherapy. It is a cosmetic procedure and not covered by my insurance, but I felt it was fairly priced and I wanted my treatment done in a doctors office. I cannot say enough nice things about Dr. Lucas and the entire staff. I was treated with warmth and kindness. Dr. Lucas is very skilled and I had minimal discomfort. I felt confident in this office the entire time. I followed the instructions after my treatment and I healed well. It has been two months since my first treatment and my veins are noticeably faded. I am extremely happy with them and will return if I need treatment again. read more

I had the best experience at La Jolla Vein Care. Dr.Bunke is an amazing doctor with the best bedside manners, she truly cares about her patients, she explained everything to me.

I am very pleased thank you !!! I truly recommend La Jolla Vein Care!!! read more

I have been dealing with post pulmonary emboli leg problems for 44 years. My vascular doctor referred me to La Jolla Vein Care over ten years ago and first Dr. Bergan and then Dr. Bunke have guided my varicose veins with ulcerations to FULL recovery. Sclerotherapy, Unna boots, compression stockings and most recently the Airos 6 sequential compression pump have brought my condition from oozing varicose ulcers to smooth, wound-free legs. I still wear maximum pressure compression stockings for maintenance and now I can participate fully in normal activity. Thank you Dr. Bunke. Jim Davis read more

Dr. Bunke and staff are an excellent bunch of kind, caring and compassionate medical personnel who have their patients best interests at heart and strive for and get the best possible outcomes for their patients.

I was referred to La Jolla Vein Care and Dr. Nisha Bunke and I am SO HAPPY with the decision to put my body in their hands. I actually looked forward to going to the doctor, unusual comment, I know.

Each phase of the process was explained thoroughly and I was encouraged to ask questions through out. Dr. Bunke has created a top-notch staff and they all made my experience 5 Star!!!! Thank you La Jolla Vein Care Staff & Dr. Nisha Bunke!!!! read more

The care that I received from ALL the staff at La Jolla Vein Care has been exceptional! A course of treatment was decided upon by Dr. Sarah Lucas, after a thorough ultrasound was performed by Jessica King, the Director of Venous Imaging...very fascinating to see the condition of my veins by ultrasound. I can't say enough good things about the professionalism/care/competence of these two as they worked together throughout the course of my treatments. They're just outstanding!! I received three forms of treatment: Clarivein, Radio Frequency Ablation and US Guided Sclerotherapy. These procedures were thoroughly explained beforehand and education about follow-up care was provided verbally as well as in handouts. My follow-up care throughout the procedures with Nurse Practitioner Anna Cardinell was also exceptional. It has been a month since my last treatment and I wanted to share this as I've experienced great success under the care of La Jolla Vein Care and I thank ALL of you for that!! read more
