As a 70 year old man I have had varicose veins for a long while. I did nothing about it as they gave me no trouble until recently when I found that after a round of golf I would have big pink blotches on my lower legs and they would sting very badly. My GP referred me to Mr Vlachakis who confirmed the legs were bad, especially the right one and that I was in danger of getting leg ulcers. I therefore had both legs done at Bournemouth Private Clinic but each was done a month apart. The right leg was worst and I had EVLA and some foam sclerotherapy on it under local anaesthetic. I said I was not worried about cosmetic effects as that would have involved a general anaesthetic. The operations were pain free apart from a few pin pricks and care by everyone was excellent throughout. The legs are much better now although the right one is still not a pretty sight. However that should improve over time. I can now walk around and play golf without any problems and it was well worth having the operations.
