About Dr. Kristen Hayes

I am a board-certified physician with over two decades of clinical experience, currently specializing in the treatment of vascular and spider veins. My career has taken me from high-pressure emergency departments in the U.S. to international assignments, including service with the U.S. Peace Corps in West Africa and medical practice at the U.S. Embassy in Vietnam. These experiences have shaped my ability to connect with and care for patients from a wide variety of cultural and personal backgrounds. I bring this perspective to our practice today, offering personalized, evidence-based vein treatments that address both medical and aesthetic concerns. My approach is grounded in skill, adaptability, and a deep respect for each patient’s individual needs and experiences.
