Compression Socks Solutions
At Saint John Vein Clinic we are continuously looking for ways to improve our services to help our patients get results.
​
Compression Socks Solutions: Get help to find the right socks for you & perfect fit, be shown how to wear & care for them. Be informed about your condition and symptoms.
As a result of helping many patients from within our office and other doctors’ offices, we discovered they all had common issues with wearing compression socks and a need for help. Since then, we have collaborated with qualified nurses who are trained to educate and empower patients with leg vein disorders and the treatment thereof. This collaborative effort will enable us to help many patients locally to have better health outcomes.
They educate patients on condition and benefits of compression socks. They discuss the features and benefits from a wide selection to suit their need, lifestyle, condition, preference, etc.
The clinic offers an elegant solution with a variety of classic, sport and fashion stockings and socks. We specialize in medical compression socks/stockings ONLY, which unlike the pharmacies, our only focus is this so we can help patients feel better with a perfectly fitted compression sock/stocking. This is done in the clinic by measuring, fitting, discussing and selling these socks/stockings and the accessories that go with them to make putting them on easier for patients.
Are you struggling to wear your medical compression socks to alleviate leg pain swelling, throbbing, heaviness, etc.?
​
We are here to help you make this a reality.
• If you are having difficulty putting them on?
• If they feel too tight?
• If they are itchy?
• If they are painful to wear?
• If they slide down your legs?
• If they bunch up?
• If your legs still swell?
• If you have limited dexterity in your hands?
• If takes too long to put them on?

Testimonial
What our clients say
The stuff took the time to inform me about my condition, did my measurements to make sure that they fit me perfectly, help choose the socks that most suitable for me since my work is outdoor.
D .Smith, Oromocto
I waited for two full years before I had my veins removed and compression socks helped me greatly control my symptoms and that improved my quality of life.
R. Kay
The staff took their time to educate me about why I need them. Even after I understood I was not very convinced, I reluctantly bought them to try unlike before I came here, now I am a convert. I put them on first thing after having my shower in the morning.
P Elliot
First pair of compression socks ever. Very surprised and pleased how they make me fill. I can stand the whole day without any feeling of tiredness, achy etc at work.
Mackay, Frederecton
