I was very nervous at first because I didn't know what to expect and the thought of closing off veins can be a bit scary to think about. I still get nervous at times before my procedures but Dr. Taghipour and her team always make sure that I am comfortable and know what to expect every step of the way. Their knowledge and attention to detail is the reason why I trust everything they do and I continue to see results after each round of treatments. Not only are they good at what they do, but I love how they create a fun and positive environment. From the very beginning they have all been so kind and caring and they make a point to include me in their conversations as they're going through my vein procedures. This has not been an easy journey for me as I have dealt with leg infections and sometimes being hospitalized for the last five years but Dr. Taghipour and her team give me the hope and confidence I need to keep moving forward in my journey.

I have recently had varicose vein treatment/surgery in both of my lower legs by Dr. Taghipour…read more Iinitally, I was a little reluctant to go in to see her, but my wife said I should. Dr. Taghipour and all of her staff are informative, punctual, and respectful. They also show that they really care about my quality of life and care. Dr. Taghipour and her staff were easy to communicate with, and it has been my genuine pleasure to have the entire staff provide my care. Dr. Taghipour has a very relaxed but professional bedside manor. The same can be said for her entire staff. Going forward, I will always use Dr. Taghipour as my vascular doctor. She has won my approval. I have told all my friends that if you ever need a vascular surgeon, Dr. Taghipour and The Vein Clinic are a great option. I would be comfortable with Dr. Taghipour treating any of my family members. For convenience, she has multiple locations. I used the main office located in town for my initial visit but had all my surgical procedures/care provided at her Waianai office. I highly recommend Dr. Taghipour and am blessed to have had such a thoughtful, considerant, compassionate doctor, and her staff of professionals provide my care. I feel she took the time to listen to my concerns and to addresses them in simple ways that were easy to understand. I highly recommend Dr. Taghipour and the Vein Clinic. If you are looking for quality health care, professionalism, timely, personalized care, Dr. Taghipour and her staff are a great option. Thank you, Dr. Taghipour, and your wonderful staff for such a great health care experience....Aloha....

I'm gonna stay on top of this from now on. Thank you

Everyone here is crazy friendly (Kaitlyn at the front reception is the great!) and even though I was a walk in, I was seen by the good doctor in less that fifteen minutes. (boom!) Dr. Yeo is very friendly, polite, professional and so funny, too! He was a pleasure to speak with and I was enjoying the good vibes! I was taken to my room and in there was a big monitor attached to a laptop. There was a Claire, friendly face on the other side who was asking and entering my information and she also shared as the doctor and I spoke she would be making notes. I love it! Dr. Yeo shared a lot of information from the basic of basics, to different scenarios and the what we are looking at and everything in between. I realize this is a specialty office and not everyone will find themselves here. However, if/when the need does arise, please come to Aloha Vein, you won't be disappointed. The office is very clean and I really liked the openness. Ample seating, water available... it's all good. Edited to add there is AMPLE free parking!

I initially came to Dr. Chung's office to treat a few minor spider veins with laser. During my…read morevisit, we discussed sclerotherapy, and I was convinced to purchase a 3-treatment package after being assured it was safe, effective, and free of complications. The first session went smoothly and I had no issues. After the second treatment, however, I started to notice small red broken capillaries appearing. During my follow-up, I was told that everything looked "normal," and no concern or explanation was raised about these new veins. After the third session, which involved many injections, I was shocked to see a major outbreak of red broken capillaries across my legs. They looked significantly worse than before any treatment. I later learned on my own that this was matting -- something that was never mentioned or explained to me by Dr. Chung. When I brought it up at a follow-up visit, it was only then acknowledged. The before-and-after photos clearly showed how much worse my legs looked after sclerotherapy. Over the last three years, I've had multiple laser treatments and visits with vascular specialists trying to improve the matting, with little success. My legs still look damaged, and I no longer feel comfortable exposing them. I deeply regret proceeding with sclerotherapy that wasn't done under ultrasound guidance and with someone who didn't have extensive experience treating complications like matting. While I was given a partial refund, I continue to live with the long-term effects of this poor outcome. I hope others do their research carefully before committing to this type of treatment.

Mom came here for a consult on varicose veins and the staff were all very welcoming and nice. However, there was a mix up regarding my mother's' consult. She had called in advance to schedule her consult however when we arrived they could not find her appointment and the doctor was not in the office so we had to come back. For her second scheduled consult, I called to confirm and everything went smoothly. As a result , I would recommend calling a day before just to confirm just in case. When it was time for her procedure appointment, the staff gave us a reminder call which was appreciated. On the day of the procedure, they did a second ultra sound check before beginning and procedure took around 45 mins. After care procedures were carefully explained. The center can also arrange for translators translators if a family member/ translator is unable to accompany the patient which I think is a great plus. Covid precaution wise the business could add a bit more precautions. Temperatures were checked prior to being let in, staff were wearing masks and number of patients allowed in at a time however that is about the extent of the precautions. No social distancing or must wear mask signs were in the waiting area. There was however a sign inside staffing area. Seats in the waiting area were not marked to enforce social distancing. Other than performing procedures, staffs do not wear gloves.

On Small Business Saturday, I met Nurse Joan. She was sweet and friendly, so…read more.. I allowed her to look at my legs...Haha! Yes, she was a stranger! And then, she even touched my legs! LOL! She was assessing me for varicose veins! I didn't think I had "diseased veins" because they weren't bulging out of my calves. However, using an ultrasound machine, the width of the veins can be measured. If the veins are too wide, the valves are unable to pump the blood back up to the heart from the lower extremities. I went to Nurse Joan's office in Waipahu. She works with Doctor Danelo Canete at the Hawaii Vein Center. It's a clean, tidy clinic with free parking in the front. I like the cute decor in the waiting area and the convenient water dispenser...Haha! The ultrasound technician was very professional and knowledgeable. He told me that the veins in question are superficial and other veins can be used in the future if needed for heart bypass. So, if we close off the diseased veins, other veins can take over...no problem. Hmmm...I'm still thinking about this procedure. If I do it now, I can prevent bulging veins, have less cramping, and feel more energetic. I didn't realize that my legs were tired due to varicose veins. I thought I was just walking and standing too much! LOL! I'll be back for further assessment!

Next a medical student Ms.Nguyen entered and asked if she could question and examine me. Okay. The walls are pretty thin. I could hear muffled conversations close by. I could tell there would be a little wait time. The student left the room and after a while entered with two more ladies. Don't have a clue who the 3 rd person was. Very attractively stunning Tomao, PA introduced herself, examined both of my legs and shared her findings with the other two. She recommended compression socks from the morning but remove when I come home. I'm figuring since I'm retired does that mean I don't need to? Also elevating legs was mentioned. Next she told me she was going to schedule an ultrasound. Fears allayed...I thought I was going to have needles stuck into me today. I told her I might have to report for jury duty and she wrote me an excuse note to show them. Wow! I went back out and a lady with gorgeous highlighted hair scheduled me saying, see you Friday and also scheduled a phone appointment for the following week to have Tamao give me the findings. I was in there about an hour. Hubs waited for me. I told him too bad Ice Garden next door doesn't open til noon.
