Dr. Tonie Reincke’s path to medicine has always been defined by a desire to provide the highest level of patient care. After years of clinical experience as a Physician Assistant, she pursued her medical degree and completed a specialized fellowship to become an Interventional Radiologist. This advanced training gave her mastery over image-guided techniques, allowing her to diagnose and treat complex conditions without the need for traditional surgery.



While her background is rooted in high-level medical procedures, Dr. Reincke found her true calling in the specialized field of venous medicine. She realized that by focusing on vein disease, she could offer compassionate care that meets medical precision. She is passionate about helping patients achieve lasting relief through minimally invasive, office-based procedures that require no downtime.
