Found Veincentre via Google. Their website is well laid out and their pricing is clear and appeared good value compared to others.
They also offered the convenience of a one visit consultation and treatment which was ideal as my nearest clinic is a couple of hours
away.
I had to send them photos of my legs to confirm it was something they could do in a day visit. All communications were very
prompt and clear and made the process very straightforward.
I visited them in Manchester and was treated by Dr Krishnan.
Receptionist was lovely and had a nice chat. In the treatment room my legs were scanned and they confirmed both had issues and could
treat both on the day. I was a little wary as my Mum had a varicose vein op over 25 hrs ago and had major complications but they
reassured me and I underwent the treatment.
Apart from a few needle injections I didn’t feel anything at all. It took about 40
mins for both legs to be treated. I had to wear the support stockings for a week afterwards. As expected I felt some uncomfortable
pain after about day 5 for another 10 days and took Ibuprofen which numbed it. It never restricted me in any way though. After 8 weeks
I returned for my follow up and just needed one further injection. I would say my veins are about 95% gone with the latter said to take
a couple of months more. The only niggle was my follow up apartment was cancelled at about 10 days notice and I had to rearrange hotel
and travel plans which was a bit of a pain.
Overall though I’m very pleased. The overall professionalism was very good and my
fears were allayed with what was such a straightforward and thankfully painless procedure. I would recommend Veincentre to anyone
needing varicose vein treatment.
