VeinCentre - Glasgow Avis 

I went to the Glasgow Veincentre on 30th October 2024 for a consultation about a severe and painful ulcer on my right leg. The doctor I saw had what seemed up-to-date diagnostic equipment, carried out ABPI and ultra-sound examinations, and a very thorough and professional enquiry into my health and past history. He was friendly, sympathetic, honest and reassuring. Any qualms I had about seeking private medical advice were banished by his honest assessment that my basic trouble was due to severe arterial insufficiency, and not to venous insufficiency as had previously been assumed. He therefore advised referral to the NHS Vascular Surgery department at the Edinburgh Royal Infirmary, wrote a detailed and specific report to enable my Edinburgh GP to make this referral, and did all he could to facilitate and hasten the necessary treatment.
He was honest and explicit that the treatments Veincentre offer are not appropriate for this particular problem - but he certainly reassured me that if I ever do need their treatment for venous insufficiency, it will make good sense to go to them.
His supporting staff, a nurse and a receptionist/ general assistant, were likewise friendly, reassuring
and professionally competent. The only shortcoming was in the quality of the typing of his report, which required so much correction as to delay matters for an extra day or two.
I am now on the ERI's urgent waiting list, and hoping to be called for an appointment by the end of the year.

Had my first consultation at the Glasgow vein centre and i was put at ease straight away, the doctor talked me through everything and agreed on what treatment i would need laser treatment, the date was set for my treatment soon after,
On the day of my treatment again doctor went through everything again and started the procedure, I won’t lie it was painful but a pain that would come and go as it doesn’t last to long, the nurse was fantastic throughout the procedure we played music of my choice 80s music and enjoyed guessing the year and having a good laugh to, it was over and done with quite quickly,
Follow up check up went well and I didn’t need any more treatment i am glad to say, had some bruising for a while but it faded away and the end result was fantastic no more big blue bulky veins, i am so happy I can finally show off my legs. Can’t thank Glasgow Vein centre for everything they have done, all staff are so welcoming, friendly and supportive, I definitely recommend them just wish i had gotten this done years ago, it has given me so much more confidence.

Dr Mathias and the staff in the Glasgow clinic are excellent. From initial consultation to treatment everyone was very helpful and informative. Dr Mathias explained all options and potential complications and answered all my questions thoroughly. Treatment took about an hour and I was able to walk out afterwards with minimum pain. I would highly recommend Dr Mathias for anyone considering treatment for varicose veins.

Couldnt be happier with how my legs look now,dr navin was helpful and put me at ease with the process,i chose vein centre glasgow as there was no hard sell or hidden fees and would definitely recommend

I went for my consultation few months ago where I met Dr Mathias and the team who explained everything to me and answered all the questions.
My actual procedure was carried out just couple of days ago and I didn’t find it painful at all just little uncomfortable afterwards.
If I will be needing any more treatments I would not hesitate to go back.
Thank you everyone in Glasgow clinic.

Brilliant staff, legs a lot better

The friendliness and reassurances of the staff made the consultation and the treatment I received a comfortable experience. Dr Navin Mathias and his caring nurse, Anne, put me at ease from beginning to end. The knowledge and expertise of Dr Mathias was impressive, his manner extremely professional and my treatment pain-free. I would be totally confident in returning to this clinic should I ever need further treatment.

I decided to get my veins treated after putting up with the pain and look of them for years. Right from my first call to vein centre to leaving after my treatment finished I was delighted with the service. I haven’t went bare legged for years but just 3 weeks after my initial treatment I felt confident to wear shorts. I can now run without wearing a knee strap which I haven’t been able to do for a long time. I wish I had this treatment years ago. Dr Mathias explained everything and made me feel at ease as did the nurse assisting him. I was worried about spending so much money and the treatment not working but it’s been worth every penny. 100% recommend veincentre & the treatment.

Procedures went well - Susie and Kathy were very nice and made me feel comfortable during my three visits.

The team made you very welcome and made your time with them stress free. They were very informative and nothing was a bother. Everything was explained fully. The procedure was painless and the staff were very reassuring and made sure everything was ok. I would go back for more treatment there than rather go to the dentist that was how well and painless it was. I would give them 10 out of 10.
