ORLANDO, Fla., Sept. 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Vein Associates Of America, Inc. announced today that Chief Operating Officer, Eric Luetkemeyer would take on the role of acting chief executive officer for the Company.

After the launch of several clinics in Florida, South Carolina, Michigan and Minnesota, Luetkemeyer will serve as a natural successor to outgoing CEO Lee Fields. “We’ll continue to roll out clinics at an aggressive pace,” says Mr. Luetkemeyer. “The market for vein disorder treatment is growing and our goal is to become the national leader in our category.”

“Mr. Luetkemeyer is a seasoned operations and financial executive with a proven history of strong leadership,” says John Kingsley, MD, FACS, RVT and Chairman of the Board for Vein Associates. “His twelve years of experience in growing a national chain of specialty medical facilities made him the right choice.” Prior to starting Vein Associates Of America, Mr. Luetkemeyer served as the Vice President of Finance for the country’s largest provider of dermatological services and surgical hair restoration with $100 million in revenues.

Mr. Luetkemeyer was voted in shortly after the board of directors accepted Mr. Lee Field’s letter of resignation. “Mr. Fields played a key role in the success of phase one,” says Mr. Luetkemeyer. “His hard work as CEO helped to establish our corporate infrastructure and our initial network of clinics.”
