                                               impressed that   in her field would be enough for anyone, but not for Dr. Bunke.

       best kept secrets around.  Women and men are actually suffering
       with the symptoms of varicose veins which in some cases cause
       severe pain, because they are too frightened of the old vein
       stripping procedures to go to a doctor for help.  Many individuals                                           17
       have no idea that a new and much better treatment exists.  Over
       the past few months I have been engulfed in the study of venous
       disease and issues that affect a large number of our population.
       Why, you might ask?  Although Dr. Nisha Bunke co-authored a
       600-page book entitled “The Vein Book,” with her favorite teacher
       and mentor Dr. John J. Bergan, she realized the need to inform
       the non-medical community about the changes in her field. “The
       Vein Book” was an extraordinary medical masterpiece explaining
       every possible study and treatment for venous conditions.
       “Working on the book was an amazing experience.
       I co-edited it with the late John Bergan.  It is over 600 pages, and
       it is an extensive study of all disorders of the veins and venous
       diseases.  The book includes insight from some of the most
       well-known and respected vascular surgeons in the world.”  As we
       discussed the procedures in more depth it soon became evident
       that what was needed at this point was a publication that would
       explain in laymen’s terms what actually caused these conditions,
       how to help relieve the pain, when to seek treatment, how to do
       so, and to basically let the rest of the world know how easy the
       solution could be to those unsightly and often extremely painful
       vein issues.  What would make it even better is if we could do it in
       a somewhat humorous manner, so the reading and enlightenment
       on this issue would, in itself, be enjoyable.
       We are proud and happy to say that within the next few months
       Dr. Nisha Bunke and I will be releasing her new book entitled "Are
       We Just Being Vein?" The Users Guide to Beautiful Legs.
