Dr. Horowitz is a proud member of the American Venous Forum where he contributes his time and expertise to further scientific and clinical research, education physicians and fellows, create unique public awareness programs and provide state-of-the-art patient care for people with venous disease.
The Ultrasound Accreditation Program involves the acquisition of clinical images, submission of relevant physician reports corresponding to clinical images submitted, and quality control documentation. The ACR Appropriateness Criteria® are evidence-based guidelines to assist referring physicians and other providers in making the most appropriate imaging or treatment decision for a specific clinical condition. By employing these guidelines, providers enhance quality of care and contribute to the most efficacious use of radiology. Central Florida Vein and Vascular Center is proud to be ACR accredited.
The American College of Surgeons is dedicated to improving the care of the surgical patient and to safeguarding standards of care in an optimal and ethical practice environment. Members of the ACS are referred to as “Fellows.” The letters FACS (Fellow, American College of Surgeons) after a surgeon’s name mean that the surgeon’s education and training, professional qualifications, surgical competence, and ethical conduct have passed a rigorous evaluation, and have been found to be consistent with the high standards established and demanded by the College. Dr. Horowitz is a proud member of the American College of Surgeons (ACS).
The American Vein and Lymphatic Society is the premier association for physicians and allied health professionals dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of venous and lymphatic disease. As the industry’s leading experts, the AVLS seeks to improve the standards of medical practitioners, the quality of patient care and the level of assistance practitioners can access. The AVLS is comprised of 2,000 vein care professionals, setting the pace and direction for the growth of the field of phlebology. All of the providers at Central Florida Vein and Vascular are proud to be members of this elite group of medical providers in the American Vein and Lymphatic Society.
The Florida Vascular Society was established in 1988 to promote the science and art of the diagnosis and management of Vascular Disease and encourage research and education in the field. Central Florida Vein and Vascular is a member of the Florida Vascular Society.
The SAVS was established to promote the art and science of vascular surgery and to further education in the comprehensive care of vascular disease, including disorders of the arteries, veins, lymphatics and microcirculation exclusive of the heart and brain. Central Florida Vein and Vascular is proud to be a member of the Southern Association for Vascular Surgery (SAVS).
The American Board of Venous & Lymphatic Medicine (ABVLM) sets a high standard for physicians who diagnose and treat venous and lymphatic disorders, including varicose veins, chronic venous insufficiency, and venous leg ulcers. Established in 2007, the ABVLM’s core mission is to improve the standards of vein care practitioners. When vein care is held to a high standard, patients can receive the excellent care they deserve. Many vein care practitioners still hold a medical license, which proves that they meet the minimal competency requirements for diagnosing and treating patients. However, board certification proves that a physician has specialized in the field and possesses superior knowledge, experience, and expertise.
Physicians who apply for board certification must go above and beyond the minimal requirements for practicing vein care. ABVLM, for example, requires physicians to have completed all requisite training or experience requirements, while keeping up with current vein care research and passing a certification exam. This examination is currently the most comprehensive test of vein disease knowledge available. Physicians who have met these rigorous requirements can confidently say that they know and understand how to handle a patient’s venous care.
