Patient Stories
Treatments performed by Mr Tahir Hussain
Varicose Veins
Our aim is to always advise on the least invasive method for varicose veins. We offer a range of treatment options including EVLA, VenaSeal, Sclerotherapy and Phlebectomy.
Thread/Spider Veins
Spider veins or thread veins, are small red, blue or purple veins that usually appear near the surface of the skin on the thighs, calves and ankles.
Hernia Repair
Open Mesh Repair surgery involves using a surgical mesh to repair the hernia opening. We allow the body to heal naturally around it which can help to prevent a recurrence.
