David T. MacMillan
MD FACS R.V.T.

    David T. MacMillan, MD, FACS, R.V.T., is a board certified
    surgeon and phlebologist, active in the practice of general and
    vascular surgery for over 20 years.  He has been specializing in
    Phlebology, a new field of medicine treating nothing but
    diseases of the venous system.  For the past four years, he has
    been gaining great insight to the field, allowing for his practice
    to become very successful with great results from his patients.  
    He is now a board certified phlebologist after passing the
    American College of Phlebology boards.  He has lived and
    practiced in the New River Valley of Southwest Virginia for over
    ten years. He attended Baylor College of Medicine, and trained
    in surgery in Houston, Texas, under Dr. Michael DeBakey, a
    pioneer in many areas of diseases of the vascular system. Dr.
    MacMillan is a member of The American College of
    Phlebology, an association founded in 1985 focusing on veins
    and their incurring diseases.

    Both during his training, and subsequently throughout his broad
    and diverse practice experience, he was frustrated by the lack
    of effective methods for the treatment of varicose veins. The
    development of new techniques, based on new technologies,
    and improvements in diagnostic instrumentation have given a
    new impetus to treatment of venous diseases and conditions,
    once felt to be untreatable by such luminaries as Dr. DeBakey.
    Dr. MacMillan distinctly remembers the frustration with which
    his mentor would approach patients with chronic venous
    disorders.

    After having visited with a friend and colleague from Houston,
    Dr. Mark  Skellenger (Cosmetic Vein Centers of Texas), it
    became apparent that a new approach to treatment of vein
    disorders was available. Dr.MacMillan has trained in Dr.
    Skellenger's office, mastering the newer skills and techniques,
    and thus Cosmetic Vein Centers of Virginia.  

    The Cosmetic Vein Centers of Virginia have been successfully  
    treating patients since 2004. Over time, Dr. MacMillan has
    perfected his practice in treating problematic veins that cause
    dull, aching, tired feeling legs.
