South Bay Vascular Center and Vein Institute

I have been going to South Bay for over a year now for spider veins. I started with Dr. Kim Rappaport who was so very nice and she was so gentle with the needle. Dr Polly Kokinos is now working on my legs and she is just as nice and gentle with the needle.
I had a map made with spider veins on my left leg and it including a mountain spider vein that I thought would never go away. I never did like needles but with Kim and Polly I felt relaxed with every visit. I love my new legs and I want to thank both Kim and Polly for helping me.
I’m designing a special greeting card just for them.
THANK YOU SO MUCH KIM AND POLLY.

This review is for Dr kokinos who is behind the South Bay vascular Center.
How do you sleep every night, when you know that you have damaged my left
leg? With the thermal injury my left calf is going to be bigger from the right one
for the rest of my life?
Because of you I ended up to Emergency (Good Samaritan Hospital) on
04−14−14 from severe nerve pain in my left leg and they gave me morphine to
calm down
I am still going from doctor to doctor and recently I found out that to stop the pain and numbness on my left leg and foot, a doctor recommended adductor canal block or fibular nerve block with Ultra Sound guidance, to get some relief
How proud are you for all the mess you put me through?
Why did you not tell me, that your skills are only for cosmetic surgeries?
You do not need to be genius to realize that the five stars reviews are written by
her employees and her relatives and dictated and paid by her. Most of these
reviews are also under «not recommended» below. But when SIN IS A LIFESTYLE
everything goes…
In my opinion, she is practicing the art of deception

I got some minor service done. The staff there made me feel very comfortable and the technician name Ali was very knowledgeable aswell as the doctor. I would highly recommend this place to anyone. The prices were very affordable as well ! Thank u

My husband went to Dr. Kokinos at my insistence. Despite his disdain for going to the doctor, we both found Dr. Kokinos, Dr. Rappaport, and the entire staff to be helpful, understanding and informative. We never felt rushed, and had everything explained to us. We were both very comfortable with the care that we received, and would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone needing a referral.

Dr. Kim Rappaport of South Bay Vascular is treating the spider veins in my legs. I have had three visits with her and as this is a process, have gotten to know her as a doctor and an individual. She is not only doing a stellar job battling the veins which are disappearing quickly, but as a person she is a terrific personality and perfectly suited for what she does. She is bright, full of energy, a great conversationalist and I always look forward to going in for the visit. She makes being pricked with a needle a pleasant experience. The office is nice and the staff very friendly.

Was referred here by a co-​worker for my varicose veins. Friendly staff, seemed like the doctors were very knowledgable. So i decided to get my veins done here. Glad I did, didnt feel a thing and no complications. would recommend!
