MARK N. ISAACS, M.D.
Dr. Mark Isaacs received his medical training at the University of California San Francisco School of Medicine. He completed his residency training at an affiliated hospital of the University of Minnesota, has been Board Certified in Family Medicine since 1979 and is a Fellow of the American College of Phlebology and the American Academy of Family Practice. He is on the hospital staff of John Muir Medical Center and is a member in good standing of both the California Medical Association and the California Academy of Family Physicians. He has been a clinical faculty member at U.C.S.F. and the University of Minnesota.
Dr. Isaacs has specialized in the treatment of
vein disease since 1990. He has served on the
faculty of the American College of Phlebology
and the Union Internationale de Phlebologie. As
an early proponent of the use of duplex ultrasound
to guide the treatment of varicose veins, Dr.
Isaacs was asked to join in the original FDA trial
study of endovenous laser, a method of treatment
that has now become the gold standard for non-surgical
treatment of large varicose veins. Dr. Isaacs
is very enthusiastic about the effectiveness of
sclerotherapy and other non-surgical modalities
for the entire spectrum of vein disease. It is
very rare that a physician has the opportunity
to use a treatment that gives both prompt relief
of symptoms and cosmetic improvement. The impact
on a patients self-image and daily functioning
can be incredibly positive.
At the urging of his staff and his longtime patients,
Dr. Isaacs has expanded the scope of his practice
to include cosmetic procedures that will further
enhance his patients self-image. He and his registered
nurse, Suzette, diligently sought out and pursued
the best training in
Botox® Cosmetic injections,
glycolic, copper and Obagi Nu Derm® products and
peels,
micropigmentation (permanent make-up) and
Collagen/
Restylane®
injections.
