Treatments

The Wetering Medical Centre is specialized in treating varicose veins. We have a phlebology team consisting of two dermatologist, a phlebologist, a surgeon and two vascular laboratory technicians. The physicians gained experience in phlebology at various hospitals. Phlebology was also the subject of Dr Krijnen’s doctoral thesis. The physicians joined their expertise in this centre where the focus is on the patient and high quality care is provided by a permanent team of medical specialists.

Examples of varicose veins and their treatment

Tiny varicose veins (spider veins/thread veins) are usually treated with injections (sclerotherapy). The tiniest (remaining) red vessels can be treated with a skin laser.
