Dr. Freeman’s initial interest in the management of hemangiomas and vascular malformations began 1987 with the birth of his second child. She developed hemangiomas of her ear and nose (known as a “Cyrano” nose). He was consistently frustrated with the lack of knowledge in terms of treatment and management that was offered locally and indeed nationally. He made it his mission to learn all he could about the treatment and management of hemangiomas and vascular malformations by taking time off from his then beginning practice and spending time with the hand full of doctors who at that time had similar interests and goals. Over time and at times in collaboration with in particular one physician (Dr. Milton Waner) he developed treatments alternatives that incorporated medical intervention, laser treatments and surgical management of these at times difficult lesions. These initial treatments have been improved over the years. He is now one of the most experienced physicians in the country in the use of ILA (intralesional laser ablation) for the management of hemangiomas and some malformations.
