QNS Highlights Dr. Shaun Cole and the New Astoria Vein Treatment Clinic
Verified
Published on 09/22/2026
The Queens publication reports on the clinic’s arrival in Astoria, Dr. Cole’s approach to patient care, and the importance of recognizing chronic venous insufficiency.
ASTORIA, N.Y. — December, 2025
QNS featured Dr. Shaun Cole and the Vein Treatment Clinic in Astoria in a December 2025 article examining the clinic’s opening and its focus on chronic venous insufficiency, varicose veins, and related leg symptoms.
The coverage introduces the new clinic at 23-25 31st Street, Suite 410, and explains how Dr. Cole’s background in internal and emergency medicine shaped his interest in venous care. He told QNS that patients can live with symptoms for years before receiving a clear diagnosis, making careful evaluation and communication especially important.
“People deserve thorough, unrushed care, especially in fields where symptoms can easily be dismissed,” Dr. Cole told QNS.
QNS also describes chronic venous insufficiency as a condition in which the leg veins do not circulate blood efficiently. Symptoms may include heaviness, swelling, aching, fatigue, and visible varicose veins. At the Astoria clinic, patients can receive an in-person evaluation and, when appropriate, diagnostic ultrasound to help identify abnormal blood flow and guide an individualized care plan.
Dr. Cole emphasized that CVI is a medical condition—not solely a cosmetic concern—and that timely diagnosis can matter for a patient’s mobility and long-term leg health.
