Lakeshore Vein Clinic

5 stars for Doc and her team! I cannot say enough about my great experience, from beginning to end. Dr. Bartel was personable and explained exactly what my circumstances were and how she was going to remedy them. Doc preformed vein ablation and scleratherapy in April 2021, and since then,
I've had no more pain in my legs, and I feel confident wearing shorts again. All of the staff is friendly and made me feel very comfortable over the duration of my visits, and eased my nervousness during my procedures. I highly recommend Lakeshore Veins!

Thank You! Glad you are happy with your results.

I have been suffering with issues in my lower legs for years. I've been to several doctors for chronic pain, swelling, itching, spider veins, varicose veins and recurring infections. Previous doctors attempted to treat the superficial symptoms, with limited success. I had nearly accepted that these issues were going to be with me for life. I had become too embarrassed to wear shorts. Then I was referred to Lakeshore Veins. Dr. Bartel, Jenny and the rest of their staff have been nothing short of amazing! They promptly diagnosed the root cause of my issues and for the first time I felt hope that relief was possible. Everything was explained in great detail, from my first visit through my procedure and beyond. Dr. Bartel and Jenny took the time to offer reassurance and answer any questions along the way. Nothing was ever rushed and I felt completely at ease throughout my experience. In fact, between my ultrasound and my initial procedure, I had the misfortune of an injury to my ankle in an area where my symptoms were the worst. Jenny went above and beyond, checking on me outside of normal business hours. She then made sure my procedure was scheduled as soon as possible to help ease the severe pain in my ankle. After merely my first procedure, the pain and swelling in my ankle was gone! I can't wait to see how things progress as I finally begin to heal from years of damage. I would highly recommend Lakeshore Vein to anybody. This has been the best medical experience I have ever had!

I made an appointment at Lakeshore Veins because I was having problems with my leg, and it was the BEST decision I have ever made. I was a bit nervous but upon entering I was immediately put at ease by Leah at the front desk, she was fantastic. When I was called in, Jenny, and Joy completely diagnosed my problem, and passed the info on to Dr. Bartel. Dr. Bartel explained everything to me in wonderful detail, laid out a plan, and soon my issues will be taken care of. If you have any vein issues this is DEFINITELY the place to go. Thank you Dr. Bartel, and your amazing staff for everything you did...you are all 5 stars for sure. One last thing I had some questions, and Melissa handled them with ease. An awesome place for sure!!!

Dr Bartel, Jenny, and Joy, and the entire team of professionals are exceptional at what they do. They clearly are the best vein specialists, and love helping people. My leg cramps and discomfort had been getting worse every year. They made me feel very comfortable throughout my procedures, and I was confident in their skills from start to finish. I would highly recommend Dr Bartel to anyone with leg vein problems.

I am very satisfied with the evaluation and treatment that I received at Lakeshore Veins. Dr. Anne Bartel and staff are very competent as well as welcoming and understanding! I spent quite a while seeking help before finding them, as I had bi-lateral, severely incompetent Greater Saphenous Veins, as well as DVT issues, one very extensive, in my left leg. At some point, the DVT dissolved, so I was able to have Radio Frequecy Ablation for the CVI. I had pain, swelling and itching, and could not find relief. I had seen several Vein Specialists, and was evaluated at Mayo Clinic in the Vascular Clinic, earlier this year, and was told then that the extensive DVT was gone, and they recommended Horse Chestnut supplementation, as well as possible Chemical Ablation, and doing research on that is what led me to Dr Bartel and Lakeshore Veins. I like it very much that Dr Bartel uses Ultra Sound to evaluate the progress of healing and any inflammation present. I received treatment in Mid-May this year, and just had my one month follow-up appointment. The pain is mostly gone, the itching is mostly gone, and the swelling is gone, plus I am in knee-high stockings, instead of thigh highs! And I look down and recognize my legs once again!! Yay! I trust Dr Bartel to do what needs to be done, but NOT MORE! Thank you, Dr. Bartel and staff...Jen, Jody, Joy and Palmira!

Thank you for your kind words! Your welcome to come visit any time.

Dr. Bartel and the entire professional staff at Lakeshore Veins are phenomenal. People from other medical providers should come and watch these professionals and learn from them.

I initially went for a consultation with Dr. Bartel, unsure of what outcomes I could expect. My previous vein doctor was unable to provide me with any recommendations to relieve the long-standing and almost intolerable pain that I was experiencing. I was left feeling that no relief would ever be available to me.

I was hesitant as I approached my initial visit to Lakeshore veins. The welcoming atmosphere immediately made me feel at ease and confident that help was on its way. After the preliminary ultrasound, Dr. Bartel provided a thorough explanation of the vein system and identified the exact location and cause of the pain I was experiencing. She identified the intervention options to me and assured me that I would experience a very positive outcome.

Her professional expertise, confidence, compassion and kindness helped to ease my fears. I immediately felt confident and scheduled my needed procedure. Lakeshore Veins staff provided the support I needed to navigate the needed approval from my insurance provider.

The procedure was successful and the staff was available to me 24 hours a day with questions that I had relative to my aftercare.

I would not hesitate to recommend the services of Lakeshore Veins and Dr. Bartel. My pain is virtually gone and I once again am able to participate in so many of my everyday physical activities. I am very grateful.

Thank you Dr. Bartel and staff
