This was a follow up visit to discuss possible further treatment after a very successful operation by Mr Wilson in February. Here again, the quality of service provided by Mr Wilson was exceptional. He explained the options for further treatment in detail, and fully understood my concerns about making the right decision. After careful consideration we agreed a way forward that left me feeling totally reassured and that support is available should I need it in future.

Mr Wilson was so nice and welcoming. From our first meeting he put me at ease straight away explaining what would happen before, during and after surgery. The results are absolutely great and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Mr Wilson to anybody who needs Varicose Vein surgery.
