5 star treatment
I had my vein treatment 6 weeks ago at the Southampton branch and the service was excellent. No more itchiness or pain. Recently had my follow up appointment and had some more injections to finish everything off, so all good. I was recommended to the veincentre and I will be recommending it to others.

Veincentre 💯 the best 👍
I had treatment on one leg. And I can assure you that, from the first day I decided to do my treatment, I was always very well received.
Starting with the reception that.
Sue Bramder always very friendly.
And helpful, and she always offered me a coffee.
And nurse Denna Smith was always very friendly and very helpful.
And always very concerned about knowing if I was okay.
And ready to help me.
And Dr. Anna Smarrock. She has magical hands. She did an excellent job. From the first day that the Doctor started the treatment. I never had any pain, thank God. 😊
My leg is still recovering, because the treatment ended on 17-01-2025.
But I can say that the recovery is going very well. And there is already a huge difference.
And I can recommend it to everyone who wants to do it. And I can guarantee that you won't regret it💯😍💐

Highly Recommended
I had particularly bad varicose veins at the back of one leg and my other leg had been damaged in a car accident as a child leaving me with soft tissue damage and swelling. I had soreness after exercising and was also self-conscious about wearing shorts. I was nervous but from start to finish The Vein Centre team at Southampton looked after me and did a wonderful job. The change is pretty unbelievable to be honest and my legs continue to improve. As a patient you do need to take some responsibility for ensuring the positivity of the outcome so it's important to do as you're told with respect to aftercare but you are very well informed and supported through this. Many thanks to Anna, Jenna, Sue and Kayleigh Highly recommended.
