Boston Vein Care

Not sure about the dermatologic services that other reviewers were seeking… but I chose Boston Vein Care because I needed treatment to reduce and eliminate painful and unsightly vericose veins, and I didn’t want to travel to Boston for treatment. I have venous insufficiency, a disease I inherited, a disease that alters lifestyle and mobility and will, over time if not treated, result in leg ulcers and blood clots that can cause death. Unlike cosmetic treatments administered by technicians, vein treatment requires a licensed vascular surgeon; and, since I did not want the high-​risk surgical vein stripping my mother had (once standard, now outdated) I needed a vascular surgeon certified and/​or licensed in laser (or vein-​wave) ablation and sclerotherapy. I chose Boston Vein Care because my initial appointment with Dr. Habib was impressive. He fully met all essential education, training, licensing, accrediting, and experience (procedures successfully performed more than 500 times) criteria. But beyond that he met critical criteria few physicians do (especially today): he is empathic, patient, reassuring, holistic in approach, and communicates all aspects of disease, options and treatment, risk and recovery, and patient responsibility and expectations in clear and concise terminology. I have nearly completed my treatment at this point and I am more than satisfied with the results. All phases of treatment and recovery have been either better than or as expected based on what Dr. Habib discussed with me. It is extremely important to note, however, that this is a two-​office practice (Wellesley and Chelmsford), meaning that the Dr. will not always be available in the Chelmsford location. It is also extremely important to note that patient compliance is a crucial part of any medical treatment plan. That said, I have worn my compression stocking as instructed (though I detest them), and I have followed the exercise and activity instructions to the letter! My recovery (as in past surgeries) has been good because I follow orders – I understand that as my responsibility in the care contract between patient and physician. I cannot speak to problems noted with staff as the Chelmsford staff, which is very small, has been most gracious, helpful, considerate and consistent in the six plus months I have been in treatment. I have, on a couple of occasions, needed to contact Dr. Habib via the Wellesley office and have also found them to be helpful, timely and thorough in meeting my needs.

I went to this place for vein treatment. I was so impressed with personal care I received from doctor and other staff, I ended up going back for hair removal. Despite negative reviews my experience had been wonderful. I had availed four treatments so far and have found the staff very nice and friendly. I am very pleased with the results of both vein and hair treatments. It is not a typical spa staffed by an esthetician rather it is a busy medical practice with doctor in house all the time. I had to change appointments twice they were fine but being busy primarily with medical and vein work, I felt they didn’t have many open slots so felt was not very flexible for repeated appointment change requests. Overall it was not a problem for me as I kept most of my appointments as scheduled.
After 3 treatments of hair removal hair regrowth is considerably reduced.
I am planning to try Hydrafacial in near future.

Zero stars… availability very limited, staff constantly changing… Groupons are a waste for this location, they are not completely honored if you are unable to schedule within their time constrain.

Awful customer service. Rude staff. And never buy a package from them. They told me my visits were good for a year and then called me after 6 months and told me they were expiring. They rescheduled every appointment I had so that I could not get my treatments on time and everytime I did get to go they had a new esthetician. Regardless don’t waste you money here!

The Boston Vein care is the best place for Laser Hair Removal and Hydra-​facial. I Love this place, the people who work in this office are all professionals, May is the best Medical Esthetician that I have ever had, she is very kind and friendly. I had hydra facial and laser treatment in this place and loved it. I recommend it to everybody.
