About

Mr Sohail A Choksy is a highly experienced Consultant Vascular Surgeon with expertise in varicose veins which he treats using minimally invasive methods such as radiofrequency, laser, and ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy to ensure the best outcome for his patients. He also has vast experience in circulation conditions due to narrowing in the blood vessels of the legs which he treats using balloon treatment angioplasty or bypass surgery.

Mr Choksy also has expertise in aneurysm surgery (both open and endovascular aneurysm repair) and is the director of the Five Rivers Aneurysm Screening Programme. For patients suffering from mini-strokes, Mr Choksy is able to perform carotid endarterectomy to treat this. In general surgery, Mr Choksy performs a number of operations including inguinal hernia repair using the open technique under local anaesthetic.

Mr Choksy completed his medical degree in 1992, followed by his training in Cambridge and Sheffield where he gained experience in modern treatments for venous and arterial conditions. He then achieved his Fellowship of the Royal College of Surgeons of England as well as a MD at the University of Sheffield in 2006.

In his personal time, Mr Choksy is very active and enjoys cycling, mountain biking, and playing squash.
