Who is the doctor at the Staten Island clinic?
Our physicians are specialists who trained at top institutions and we prioritize non-surgical solutions that deliver results without the risks and recovery time of traditional surgery. Every treatment plan begins with a thorough evaluation, we believe in understanding the root cause of your symptoms before recommending any procedure.
Dr. Kyle Mele
Vein doctor
Dr. Kyle Mele leads both vein and pain services at this location. He is a board-certified anesthesiologist with specialized training in interventional pain management and venous medicine.
His approach focuses on accurate diagnosis first. Rather than jumping to treatment, Dr. Mele uses diagnostic imaging to understand exactly what is causing your symptoms, whether that’s venous insufficiency in your legs or nerve compression in your spine. Treatment recommendations follow from that evaluation, not the other way around.
Dr. Mele trained at esteemed institutions and stays current with the latest developments in both pain management and vein treatment through active participation in national medical conferences.
Which vein treatments are available at our Staten Island vein clinic?
For patients experiencing leg symptoms related to vein disease, varicose veins, spider veins, or chronic venous insufficiency, the Staten Island clinic offers advanced, minimally invasive treatments designed to effectively address your vein concerns. We focus on diagnosing the underlying causes of venous insufficiency and providing personalized treatment.
- Comprehensive ultrasound: High-resolution ultrasound screening helps us accurately diagnose conditions like spider veins and varicose veins.
- Sclerotherapy: This effective treatment involves injecting a solution directly into problem veins, causing them to close and fade.
- Radiofrequency ablation (RFA): Using controlled heat, RFA seals off damaged veins, redirecting blood flow to healthier veins.
What pain treatments are available?
For patients dealing with chronic or acute pain, Dr. Mele offers interventional treatments that address the source of pain without surgery or long-term narcotics, including treatment for:
- Back and spine pain
- Knee pain
- Neck pain
We invite you to experience the specialized treatment available at our new Staten Island clinic. Our team is ready to help you restore your leg health so you can enjoy walking through the scenic Brookfield Park and Great Kills Park once more.
