I would recommend Advanced Vein and Laser Center to anyone with varicose veins.
I had vein stripping many years ago. I then developed very large varicose veins on my thighs and legs. Dr. Winand at Advanced Vein and Laser Center was able to treat my veins with a much better procedure than vein stripping. I did not need general anesthesia and the cramps in my legs stopped the same day as the treatment. It was great! I would recommend Advanced Vein and Laser Center to anyone with varicose veins. This was much better than I was expecting.

I have not yet had my medical procedure done but so far the attention I have received from Dr. Heird and his staff, particularly Stephanie, has been exemplary!
Dr. Heird spent all the time I needed during his first examination and consult, which is unusual in the current medical world. Stephanie has not only answered my many questions but has gone the extra mile in helping me choose compression garments and satisfy several other concerns. I feel very much at ease as I approach my procedures knowing what to expect and that the doctor and staff will followup just as professionally and compassionately as they have pre op.

I have seen Dr. Heird for help with my varicose and spider veins.
He is a pro and helped me feel confident and safe about my choice to pursue treatment. He has some great staff working for him. The receptionist, Diana, is friendly and knowledgeable. The nurses and technicians are not only well-trained but also care about me as a person; Steph is a shining light. Amy, who conducts the sclerotherapy rechecks is thorough and thoughtful. Most importantly, I am happy with my results and know that Dr. Heird is willing to help with any issues I have in the future.

I had wonderful experience at the Advanced Vein & Laser Center.
I was very happy with my experience at the Advanced Vein & Laser Center. I had a lot of damage to my legs after pregnancy. The staff was very friendly and helpful. For my first visit I had ultrasounds, my legs got marked, pictures taken, and explanations of procedures. I came back to the office a few times for the work/ablations. I had a few follow-up appointments of ultrasounds and vein checks. I feel much better with my vein work, and I am very pleased with the work that was completed.

Dr. Heird is very professional while he is working and explaining; but at the same time has a pleasant and warm personality, making sure I was comfortable during the procedure. He wanted me to have the best results possible with the procedures and went above and beyond what he had to do! Very pleased with results!

Beyond professional, thorough, and caring.
Dr. Winand and his staff were beyond professional, thorough, and caring. I had previously had an awful experience with another local vein doctor in the Lancaster area who was very arrogant and did nothing to the appearance of my veins, which left me high and dry with no results- very disappointing! Then I discovered Advanced Vein and Laser Center! He was not only superior in his technique, but personal. Most of all, Dr. Winand has given me such a gift- I can wear shorts this summer without being embarrassed!! I can’t thank him and his staff enough. I highly recommend Advanced Vein and Laser Center without reservation.

Felt very comfortable with with whole experience.
I was welcomed as soon as I walked into office which is very important to me as a new patience. Everyone has been very friendly and willing to answer questions especially Dr Winand. Day of procedure I was VERY scared, Jodi and Noreen really helped me relax by talking to me and helping to keep my mind off of what was being done to my leg. Thank You to everyone for making this experience tolerable.

Exceptional Experience at Advanced Vein & Laser Center.
The entire staff at Advanced Vein & Laser Center made my experience exceptionally successful!! The staff was very professional and friendly. They always made me feel like my comfort and knowledge of procedure, was very important to them. I always looked forward to seeing the artwork in Tanya’s Ultrasound room. It added a personal touch and was a great topic of conversation to pass the time, while Tanya was scanning my veins. The Advanced Vein & Laser Center exceeded my expectations by far!

He explained the procedure and much allayed my fears of what to expect. The staff are all professional and kind, as well. My legs are one hundred percent better, now. I was having recurring superficial thrombosis problems and they are gone. It is a new lease on life. Thank you, Dr. Winand and staff for taking such good care of me.
