Introduction
With his BS degree from Tufts University in Massachusetts, his medical degree from Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Pennsylvania, and over ten years of experience in vascular and general surgery performing a wide range of procedures, Dr. Schwartz relocated to Kansas City in 2003 with his wife, Peggy – a Kansas City native – and opened one of the Midwest’s first dedicated vein treatment centers – Vein Centers for Excellence of Kansas City.
While most vein treatment at this time involved hospital-based vein stripping procedures, which involved much pain and weeks to months of downtime, a group of vascular surgeons were embracing new treatment modalities that provided the resolution of venous hypertension in the superficial veins of the lower extremities that provided safe and better outcomes with significantly less patient inconvenience and pain than in the past. The new venous ablation procedures, using the newest laser technology, allowed vascular surgeons to diagnose and treat vein patients right in the comfort and convenience of their own offices.
Dr. Schwartz quickly realized the patient benefit of this type of treatment and after training with Dr. Ronald Bush – one of the original leaders in the use of minimally-invasive endovascular laser ablations to treat venous insufficiency – he opened his own dedicated vein treatment center in Leawood, KS, providing the Kansas City area with its first dedicated vein treatment center directed by a vascular surgeon. These procedures are now considered the industry standard in the treatment of vein disease with years of documented results.
After many years of dedication to the vascular and vein industries, Dr. Schwartz noticed the need among his patients for office-based lipo, body contouring, cellulite and facial skin-tightening treatments, performed by a trusted, well-credentialed surgeon. Dr. Schwartz trained with and attended preceptorships with notable aesthetic surgeons, such as Dr. Jeffrey Klein, the original inventor and developer of Tumescent Liposuction, and Dr. Robert Weiss, Dr. Roger Hogue and Dr. David Broadway. This was a natural progression in Dr. Schwartz’s career, as he was already an accomplished and skilled physician in the area of laser surgery in the treatment of vein disease and the use of tumescent anesthesia, and many of the early in-office fat removal and body contouring procedures involved the use of both laser energy performed under tumescent anesthesia.
In 2014, Dr. Schwartz merged his two practices – Vein Centers for Excellence of Kansas City and KC Body Contouring – into one and became Premier Vein & Body by Schwartz, offering his patients a more comprehensive range of minimally invasive and non-invasive procedures for the veins and body.
He holds triple board certifications in Vascular Surgery, General Surgery and Phlebology, and is further certified in Ultrasound as both an RPVI and RVT.
