JERICHO, N.Y. — December, 2025
Dr. Zalekha Shair, a board-certified surgeon and vein specialist at Vein Treatment Clinic, is featured in the December 2025 Influential Women of Long Island Vogue edition for her work in vein care and her commitment to women experiencing leg discomfort.
In the feature, Dr. Shair discusses symptoms such as leg pain, swelling, and restlessness and emphasizes the importance of taking persistent discomfort seriously. She also describes creating a calm environment where patients feel comfortable discussing their concerns.
“We treat patients like family—with compassion, with jokes, in a calm, zen space,” Dr. Shair said.
Her message is especially directed toward women who may feel uncomfortable discussing visible spider or varicose veins or who have learned to live with persistent leg symptoms.
“You are not defined by discomfort,” she said. “You are worthy of care that restores health, comfort, and confidence.”.
