I was a little anxious to have the treatment the first time but Kate was very reassuring and gentle with the procedure. I am absolutely thrilled with the results after 2 sessions and would highly recommend Kate and the clinic. Thank you!

Explanation

Highly competent, extremely pleasant, kind approachable vein consultant who really 'knows his stuff' is how I would describe Mr Coleridge Smith. I've found sclerotherapy brilliantly & immediately effective to sort out troublesome veins. It really does make SUCH a huge difference. For anyone having problems with veins, I really can't recommend Mr Coleridge Smith and his team highly enough. The whole treatment process is well organised, efficient, professional and really does deliver such effective results. I am extremely grateful that such a treatment exists and is readily available from such an experienced and dedicated consultant.
