“My experience here at iThrive was really, really good. The staff here was great. I came in for some swelling that I was having, and I’m coming out without having any swelling at all.”

“I was feeling a lot of pain, a lot of redness on my legs, throbbing, heat, and they were heavy before, and now I just love the amazing results that I’ve had from all these treatments.”

“I inherited varicose veins in my legs, which I began to struggle with in my 20s. I finally found Dr. Damani, who performed Varithena treatment and significantly improved my circulation.”

“My vein issue is much better now. There’s no heaviness in my leg anymore; it feels lighter and smaller. My legs get a bit tight in those areas, and it’s really an awesome experience.”

“I had a couple of procedures where my veins were injected, and now the bulging is gone. I didn’t experience much heaviness in my legs, but I do feel like they are lighter now. I’m very happy with the results.”

“I experienced significant pain and swelling in my legs. It was becoming quite severe for me. Now, I feel unbelievable – it’s amazing! I have no pain and no swelling. I highly recommend iThriveVeins.”


Dr. Damani is a board-certified cardiologist with over 15 years of experience and more than 10,000 procedures performed. He founded iThriveVeins to bring evidence-based, personalized vein care to San Diego — combining traditional medicine with the digital health and genomic insights he developed during his career at Scripps.
I recently did vein treatment with the iThrive clinic and everything went really well. I was afraid to do it because of pain and recovery, but in reality the treatment was almost painless and recovery goes very well.
I had a Varithena treatment recently and I’m very happy with the results. My veins look so much better and I no longer feel the heaviness and discomfort I used to have. The procedure was quick. I highly recommend it.
My experience was great, everyone was so helpful and explained all that I needed to know about the procedure and what to expect. I’m so happy that I am finally able to get my veins taken care of. The staff are amazing.
The treatment went smooth and I immediately felt my legs lighter and improved. I recommend it also because everyone was professional and provided gentle care to my legs which I was very sensitive to touch.
Excellent service, everyone who works here is very friendly, the procedures are quick and painless, they have helped me a lot to feel better about my legs, Dr. Kyle is very experienced in what he does.
Went in for severe redness and swelling in both legs. After several varithema procedures my legs are much better. Dr. Damini was great and the staff was very efficient, helpful and friendly.
