Glasgow Vein Clinic

Frequently Asked Questions

 

What treatment is best for me?

 

This depends on the type of varicose veins you have, and will be determined after your initial consultation and scan. 

 

Do I need to be referred by my GP?

 

No.  You do not need a GP referral - you can self-refer by calling 0808 250 8523 to arrange an appointment.

 

(Patients with private medical insurance may require a GP referral and are advised to contact their insurer in the first instance for authorisation - failure to do so may result in non-payment of fees by your insurance company) 

​

Will you inform my GP?

 

Yes - after every consultation and treatment. 

 

How can I pay for my consultations / treatment?

 

You can pay by cheque, credit/debit card, BACS or via private medical insurance.
