About Dr. Eddie Fernandez

Eddie Fernandez, MD, RPVI is a native of Puerto Rico and a descendant of Cuban parents who immigrated to this country in 1965. He moved to Worcester, Massachusetts in 1989 at the age of 12. After finishing high school in Worcester, he went to University of Vermont where he graduated in 1998 with a Bachelors of Science degree in Biomedical Technology. He proceeded to get a Masters in Science from University of Vermont in Biomedical Technology and wrote his dissertation on endometriosis. In 2003, he graduated from Tufts University School of Medicine, and he went on to pursue his residency in Emergency Medicine at Baystate Medical Center in Springfield, Massachusetts. Upon completion of his residency in 2006, Dr. Fernandez moved to Maryland with his wife and has been a physician in the Emergency Medicine Department at Holy Cross Hospital. He is an Associate Professor of Emergency Medicine for Georgetown University School of Medicine. In 2009 he did a subspecialty fellowship in phlebology and joined Center for Vein Restoration. He has been practicing phlebology ever since. “I had my own experience with venous disease. I went years with misdiagnosed venous disease and associated pain. I want to make sure that similar situation does not happen to others.” His dedication to providing state-of-the-art treatments comes at an important time – an estimated 40 million Americans now suffer from vein disease. Medical practice is rapidly advancing to reduce the suffering from painful symptoms, and yet it’s still too often an under-diagnosed condition. “It is my great joy to see the rapid benefits that so many patients get after years going undiagnosed. This is most important in patients with venous stasis ulcers and dermatitis.” Dr. Fernandez describes his personal work in the field of venous insufficiency and areas where he has a particular focus: “I specialize in the treatment of venous ulcers and varicosities.”
