We strive to avoid waiting lists and can normally fit you in for consultation and treatment within two weeks. Some times of the year are far more popular than others and particularly in late spring/ early summer there may be more difficulty accommodating you. The best time to organise treatment is in the autumn, winter or early spring. This leaves plenty of time for full recovery before the hot weather and causes least discomfort and inconvenience from wearing compression stockings.

Our office staff are highly experienced and very knowledgeable and are usually able to answer any questions you may have with confidence. If they are in any doubt they will ensure that Dr West personally and promptly responds to you.

For those patients travelling long distances it is usually possible to arrange treatment on the same day as the consultation. You will normally need to get a letter of referral from your GP in advance of the consultation but it is your right to have treatment by us without informing your GP. Please discuss any such requirements by phone.

If you don’t object please arrange a letter of referral from your general practitioner which should be sent to Veincentre, North Staffordshire Nuffield Hospital, Clayton Rd., Newcastle under Lyme, Staffs, ST5 4DB prior to your appointment or brought with you on the day.

We have prepared a leaflet for you to take to your GP as he/she may be unfamiliar with EVLA and foam sclerotherapy. He/she may also not be aware that interventional radiologists accept referrals directly from GP's.

We only employ experienced vascular specialists who are consultants in the NHS and have undertaken large numbers of minimally invasive venous treatments. They will be surgeons or interventional radiologists. You may specify which consultant you wish to see.

If you possess images from previous medical investigations (eg. Duplex ultrasound scans of veins) please also bring these with you to the consultation.

You are welcome to E-mail specific queries to us in advance of consultation.
