Welcome to the Michigan Vein Institute. Our goal is to provide the finest and most advanced vein treatment services available anywhere in the United States today.  We don't inject Botox. We don't do liposuction,  We simply provide expert vein treatment 10 hours a day, 5 days a week.

Michigan Vein Institute is the foremost Laser and Vein Treatment facility in the Northern Lower Peninsula and Eastern Upper Peninsula of Michigan providing comprehensive vein care unsurpassed in the State of Michigan. From your treating physician to the nursing staff everyone at MVI is extensively trained in vein treatment and specializes in Phlebology. We are committed to excellent patient care and educating Michigan patients and their medical providers about the exciting new advancements in our specialty of Phlebology, the treatment of venous disease. During our consultations each patient is educated about the causes of vein disease, the anatomy and physiology involved, the various options for treatment, and how to help prevent disease progression. Each patient is given a personalized folder with information on their treatment options and diagnosis and procedure codes that can be used to verify insurance coverage for their treatment. All locations are staffed by Dr. Peter Benson, M.D., a board-certified vein specialist who is nationally recognized as a leading authority on varicose vein treatment and insurance reimbursement for endovenous laser ablation and sclerotherapy. Dr. Benson also provides instruction and training to other physicians on a number of topics related to vein treatment.

Comprehensive vein treatment is our specialty. Our services include the latest non-surgical vein treatments including:

  1. E.V.L.A. (EndoVenous Laser Ablation)

  2. Ultrasound-Guided Foam Sclerotherapy

  3. Visual Sclerotherapy with Foam

  4. Ambulatory Microphlebectomy

  5. Intense Pulsed Light (STARLUX)

The American Medical Association officially designated Phlebology (the medical study and treatment of vein disease) as a distinct medical subspecialty in November 2005. We are proud to announce that our medical director, Peter Benson, M.D. was the first physician in the United States officially recognized by the AMA as a Registered Phebology Specialist or Phebologist.

The first board-certification exam in Phlebology was given in 2008.  Dr. Benson was in the very first group of physicians to take the 2008 board-certification examination in Phlebology. Just 247 physicians passed the test that year. There are currently still just 612 board-certified Phlebology specialists in the United States.

Why Choose MVI?
One third of our new patients are referred by satisfied patients who have been treated at MVI. 
 
One third of our new patients had treatment elsewhere prior to coming to MVI , but still have vein problems. 
 
The other third we're not sure but we suspect it may be because there are a lot of restaurants and shopping close by.
