What Is Chronic Venous Insufficiency?
Do your legs often feel heavy, swollen, or achy? You may be experiencing chronic venous insufficiency (CVI), a condition that occurs when weakened vein valves prevent blood from flowing properly back to the heart. Over time, this can lead to pooling in the legs, causing discomfort, varicose veins, and even skin changes. Causes of chronic venous insufficiency include prolonged sitting or standing, aging, and a history of blood clots. Common venous insufficiency symptoms range from mild swelling to more severe issues, like leg ulcers. At Southern California Vascular Institute, Dr. Amiel Moshfegh offers advanced treatments to improve circulation and relieve discomfort. If you're noticing these symptoms, contact one of our locations in Los Angeles or Bakersfield, CA to learn how we can help.

Southern California Vascular Institute Reviews
Dr Moshfegh was excellent. I was suffering from severe leg pain and varicose veins for several years. He was very thorough in his evaluation. He reviewed all prior imaging I had personally with me and explained everything in great detail. He gave his honest opinion on a treatment plan and didn't push me to pursue any treatment. When I decided on my own to pursue treatment, he performed an outpatient minimally invasive vein surgery in the smoothest manner. I experienced nearly no post procedure pain and for the first time in my life I am pain free and able to continue with my daily activities with much more energy. And best of all the varicosities have completely disappeared. He also offers to review the MRI of my spine with me free of charge and explain to me how and why I have back pain. Truly a compassionate and caring Doctor. One of a kind!
Dr Mosh is a rare physician as he has a very real, honest and personable. He pays attention and is attentive to your concerns prior to, during and after the process. I would definitely use him for any procedures that are in his wheelhouse in the future.
Had a great experience with Dr. Moshfegh, he is So knowledgeable in his field and put you at ease right away. So happy I decided to go with him to treat my varicose veins.
Dr. Mosh and office staff receives an A+++. They got me in right away, dealt with my hip issue. Very friendly and professional.
Dr. Moshfegh is an exceptional doctor. I had an MRI done at his facility and he managed some potentially painful injections in a way that significantly minimized the pain. But most importantly, he took the time to explain his interpretation of the report. Ample time, his valuable time. He's both smart and interested in discovering your underlying problem. He found something no one else had discovered in almost 18 months of pain, surgeries and doctors. I recommend this guy at every level. His staff is fantastic as well
