Dr. Mele is a board-certified physician specializing in vein medicine. He trained in anesthesiology at Northwestern University and completed fellowship training at Harvard-affiliated Brigham and Women’s Hospital, where he developed expertise in image-guided, minimally invasive procedures.

What does this feature highlight?
The New York Family profile addresses common misconceptions about vein disease. Many people assume varicose veins are purely cosmetic, but chronic venous insufficiency is a progressive medical condition.
