Find out how we can help

We offer “gold standard” laser treatments that represent excellent value. These treatments are performed under local anaesthesia and are a walk-in, walk-out procedure by our Expert Consultant Vascular Surgeon, Rob Windhaber. There are no waiting lists, no major cuts, and you can return to work in just a day or two. Endovenous Laser Ablation is the safest and most effective treatment for most types of varicose veins and is the type of treatment endorsed as the “gold standard” by both NICE and the European Society of Vascular Surgery in their guidelines.

We are recognized by all major insurance companies and provide peace of mind for self-funding patients with our fully inclusive Ramsay Totalcare packages. Private care doesn’t have to be expensive.

Day Case Laser Varicose Vein Removal

Our laser treatments are guaranteed and our prices are fully inclusive with no hidden extras. If, for any reason, our treatment does not produce the agreed result, we will treat you again free of charge. The prices below include day-case treatment of all agreed veins with “gold standard” Endovenous Laser, any necessary Phlebectomies, and foam treatment. All aftercare, including stockings, follow-up appointments, and any additional injections for residual veins, is included, and there are no additional charges.

How Does the Process Work?

The process begins with a detailed and thorough face-to-face consultation in the outpatient clinic, which takes about 1 hour. During this assessment, you will meet our expert vascular surgeon, Rob Windhaber, who performs all our vein removal treatments. Rob will ask you about your vein condition, your medical history, any medications you are taking, and any allergies you have. He will then examine your legs and perform a detailed ultrasound venous duplex scan on both legs to assess the veins’ functioning and identify the cause and extent of any vein problem.

The most important part of the consultation is the discussion that follows. During this time, Rob will explain your vein problem, listen to all your concerns, and talk you through all your options. This will include options to treat your veins and options for managing your vein problem conservatively. At the end of this process, you should have all the information you need to decide what is best for you and understand how we can support you with this. After your consultation, we will send you a detailed letter, including a fixed price quote for any treatment you are considering. If you wish to proceed with treatment, this can be arranged through Rob’s secretary, Claire Bosustow, whose details will also be in the letter.

Outpatient Clinic Varicose Vein Foam Sclerotherapy Injections

For patients not suitable for Endothermal Ablation, we offer foam sclerotherapy. While this technique is not as effective or straightforward as Endovenous Laser Ablation, it is useful for smaller veins in patients who do not require immediate results. The package includes Foam Injections in the outpatient clinic, all aftercare, including stockings, follow-up appointments, and any additional injections for residual veins, and there are no additional charges.

  • Exceeded Expectations

    I visited Mr Windhaber for varicose veins which were keeping me awake at night because they were throbbing. I also had blasts of broken veins so my legs which were very unsightly. Mr Windhaber did a thorough examination on my first visit and quickly booked me in to deal with the issues. He explained carefully how he could deal with the issues and all about the proceedure.

    The varicose veins were dealt with on that appointment and most of the broken veins. At my follow up appointment I expected to be discharged but was pleasantly surprised to find that Mr Windhaber felt there was more he could do to improve the appearance of my legs. He ensured all the veins were treated to his satisfaction. My legs look so much better now and instead of hiding them away I now feel confident to wear a dress which is great as my niece gets married next year. At every appointment Mr Windhaber was kind, considerate and very understanding. I would like to thank him so much for exceeding all my expectations.

  • Extremely Happy

    Dr Windhaber was excellent from the start to the end of my treatment. He listened and took on board any concerns that I had and put my mind at rest and explained the procedure that I needed for maximum affect. He was both professional and friendly and made me feel at ease from the beginning.

    Dr Windhaber was always available on the phone or via email if I had any concerns about ongoing treatment which I didn’t and he was dedicated to making sure that I was happy with my treatment and to have follow up appointments until I was. I couldn’t have asked more and I’m extremely happy with my results and would recommend Dr Windhaber without hesitation.

  • Excellent Service

    Booked myself into one off duchy hospital open nights luckily for me only two people booked so mr windhaber kindly to agree to see us . I had been going to my going to my gp with cramp and terrible pain in both legs and getting no where , Mr Windhaber listened to me asked questions and discussed a treatment plans as well as giving me his plan to take to my go for a second option . I went ahead with the treatment and the whole team were great at putting me at ease and was very professional from start to finish.

    Two follow up appointments and one where I had a small problem emailed his secretary and he saw me straight away explaining what had happened and putting me at ease and not wasting his time . He has very kindly added another appointment to just check . Excellent service from start to finish and no more cramp or pain .Don’t change anything maybe cup tea in a proper cup not paper !

  • Huge Improvement

    I chose Mr Windhaber to help me with a cosmetic procedure as a result of reading other patient reviews which were all so positive and complimentary, I am very happy to add my feedback. Robin is one of the easiest people to talk to, he listened very carefully and answered all my questions, taking care to make sure I understood the way that he would be able to reduce the ugly red spidery veins in my ankles.

    My first treatment was so successful, after a space of a few weeks I could see a huge improvement, I have just had the second session which will reduce the appearance even more, in time for summer clothes! I would recommend Mr Windhaber to anyone contemplating any kind of surgery to do with veins whether major or cosmetic. It’s easy to find him, and his secretary Claire will sort out an appointment! Thank you so much

  • Definitely Recommend

    I recently received treatment for varicose veins from Mr Windhaber, and I am delighted with the results. From the initial consultation through to the follow-up appointment, my treatment and care have been first class.

    Mr Windhaber has a quiet and considered manner, never rushing appointments or treatment; always ensuring I understood what was happening and that I was comfortable at all times. If anyone is considering varicose vein treatment, I would definitely recommend Mr Windhaber.
