During your out-patient consultation, you can relax within the calming, unique and quality clinical environment at The Edinburgh Clinic.
Using one of our peaceful consulting rooms, your consultant will discuss your medical history with you and carry out a physical assessment and arrange any diagnostic tests necessary.
At The Edinburgh Clinic your consultant has access to on-site diagnostic imaging, including ultrasound conducted by consultant interventional Radiologists for subspecialist vascular imaging.
Your consultant can also arrange blood testing for further investigation of any vascular health concerns. If treatment is recommended, surgical procedures can be carried out in our on-site day-case operating theatre.
You can self-refer to private varicose veins treatment if you choose to self-pay. All other vascular consultation and treatment requires that your GP refers you to The Edinburgh Clinic
