Welcome to Check Up 13, in partnering with St. Vincent Health

WTHR, Channel 13, and Anne Marie Tiernon, co-anchor and health reporter, have partnered with St. Vincent Health on an initiative called Check Up 13. The goal of the program is to educate and encourage Indiana residents to take a proactive role in their own health. Check Up 13 includes news stories that will air on the 13th of every month during the Health Beat segment. The program will highlight St. Vincent Health medical staff and focus on the health topic screening, event or promotion for that month.
 
Varicose and Spider Veins
Varicose veins are large, raised, swollen blood vessels that twist and turn. These veins usually develop in the legs and can be seen through the skin. Spider veins are smaller than varicose veins and typically are red, purple and blue vessels that also twist and turn.
