Back on 2008 I was under his care, he uses a laser to eliminate an small vein in my face. The vein wasn't eliminated he instead apply the laser in a wrong place burning my skin and making a permanent ugly scar.

I went to two doctors both made me sonogram for my leg and thought about treatment. Dr Habal when he read that my vein was striped directly gave me the accurate diagnosis and gave me the only solution the compression stocking . Honest and very understanding to patient's feeling He comforted me with his solution.

Excellent diagnosis and result.I think the surgeon is not talented in explaining to patient about z procedure. I believe in his way as he seems mute but gives total satisfaction.
