Varicose Vein Treatment for Cirencester Patients
The Vein Clinic is a specialist vein clinic for patients from Cirencester and the surrounding Cotswolds, providing consultant‑led assessment and hospital‑based treatment for varicose veins and related venous conditions. All consultations and procedures are delivered from our single, regulated clinic within Great Western Hospital in Swindon, where care is led by a consultant vascular surgeon and supported by on‑site duplex ultrasound and personalised treatment planning.
Patients searching for a vein clinic near Cirencester often choose to travel to Swindon for consultant‑led, hospital‑based care, particularly when seeking specialist assessment and durable long‑term outcomes. Patients from Cirencester, Tetbury, Fairford and nearby towns routinely attend our vein clinic for assessment and treatment, with decisions guided by detailed venous ultrasound rather than a one‑size‑fits‑all approach.

Frequently asked Questions
Do Cirencester patients need to travel for treatment?
Yes. While we regularly treat patients from Cirencester and the surrounding Cotswolds, all consultations and procedures are delivered from our single, hospital‑based clinic to ensure consistent standards and access to specialist support.
Why do you only work from one hospital site?
National registry data has shown higher complication rates when vein procedures are performed in non‑hospital or pop‑up settings. By working exclusively from a regulated hospital environment, we reduce risk and ensure that even rare complications can be managed immediately and safely.
How long will my visit take?
Most initial assessments, including duplex ultrasound scanning, take around 60–90 minutes. Many minimally invasive treatments are performed under local anaesthetic and allow immediate walking afterwards.
Will I need time off work?
Most patients return to normal activities quickly. Any specific downtime depends on the procedure performed and will be discussed during consultation.
