Referral Expectations

Our seven-step process takes the worry out of treatment:

Free vein assessment
Ultrasound mapping with Vascular Sonographer
Consultation with the Vascular Surgeon
Initial Treatment
Follow-up Ultrasound Scan
Follow-up review in 6-12 weeks, further treatments if required with 12 months
Treatment goals reached - discharge

Treatment - an ultrasound mapping scan and a detailed patient history will be used to provide information for the treatment plan. All treatments are a walk-in/walk-out process, followed by the need to wear specific compression stockings for around 3-10 days, supplemented by regular walking.
