At Republic Advanced Endovascular, Dr. Peter Morgan specializes in the cases other clinics call hopeless, correcting complex venous insufficiency that earlier treatments left behind.
If a previous vein treatment left you disappointed, you’re not out of options. You were likely just undertreated.
Most “failed” procedures only close the most obvious veins and miss the rest, so the pressure that caused your symptoms never really goes away. The relief fades, the veins come back, and you’re left assuming nothing worked.
Lasting results almost always require correcting more than a few veins. There are usually too many involved to treat one at a time, and the underlying insufficiency has to be addressed throughout the leg, not just where it shows on the surface.
Dr. Morgan has built his practice around finding what previous treatments left behind, mapping the full extent of the problem, and correcting all of it, no matter how complex or severe, until your circulation is working the way it should.

Closing a few veins only treats the most obvious problems. It may give a visible improvement, but that result is short-lived and incomplete.
The best, most lasting results come from methodically assessing the venous circulation throughout the legs, then methodically correcting all of it to restore normal flow.
There are almost always too many veins involved to treat one at a time, so we correct as many as necessary and possible during each procedure, frequently multiple veins per procedure, until your venous circulation is back to normal, the way it was when you were growing up.
Dr. Peter Morgan is one of the most experienced vein specialists in the Houston metropolitan area. He began treating veins full-time in 2008 and opened his first Houston-area clinic in 2009. Since then, he has treated tens of thousands of patients.
His work in this field traces back to Dr. Charles Rodman, who pioneered these techniques in the mid-2000s. Dr. Morgan trained and worked alongside Dr. Rodman beginning in 2008, building the depth of experience that defines his practice today.

The most severe vein problems usually stem from a genetic predisposition, often combined with occupations, hobbies, or habits that keep the legs in a lowered, dependent position for long stretches. When the legs are down, especially when they aren’t moving much, blood has to travel uphill against gravity to leave the legs, which is difficult. This creates high pressure in the veins.
That pressure causes the veins to enlarge, and as they enlarge, the one-way valves inside them pull apart and stop working. Blood then begins to flow backward, which drives the pressure even higher. Left unaddressed, the cycle continues and worsens over time.
Venous insufficiency tends to develop from a combination of factors. The most common include:
Varicose veins, swelling, spider veins, heaviness, tiredness, fatigue, and aching pain are all signs of underlying venous insufficiency. When the underlying insufficiency is fully corrected, these signs and symptoms resolve.
Venous reflux is present in nearly everyone with skin or perspiration changes in the legs, and it must be addressed thoroughly and completely to achieve the most durable outcome. In nearly every case, multiple veins must be closed within each section of the leg.
This is where experience matters. At Republic Advanced Endovascular, every treatment is built on:
