Venous diseases are extremely common in both women and men. Over the years, daily recurring factors such as long periods of sitting or standing put a lot of pressure on our thin-walled veins. As a result, varicose veins (also called varicosities) develop, especially in the legs.

Using minimally-invasive, scar-free, pain-free treatments of varicose veins and varicosities. Many years’ experience and performing up to ten varicose vein surgeries a day, as well as the combination of the latest modern technology, diagnostics and surgical methods, allow us to treat even complicated cases without resorting to traditional surgery. Our patients can return to work and be active immediately; they can shower, participate in sports and only have to wear compression stockings for one or two days.

Patients treated using the most advanced minimally invasive technology can return to sporting activities in just one or two days.

Combining modern radio frequency and laser treatments with heated steam injections for the best possible varicose vein treatments

High-tech facilities and the latest equipment are the basis for the best possible vein treatment in our surgery. Using diagnostic techniques such as the 3D sonogram veins and arteries can be shown three dimensionally and can be examined on screen from all sides, offering pictures that can only usually be seen during MRI or CT scans.

Additionally, we offer a number of very rare and individual combinations of different minimally invasive single-visit methods for varicose vein treatments and removals at our specialist vein Clinic in London :

• Ablation therapy that uses radio frequency (also called radiofrequency occlusion) e.g. VNUS Closure™ as well as CELON® treatment
• Hot steam therapy injections (Steam Vein Sclerosis, SVS for short)
• The laser treatment of spider veins (Nd-YAG-Laser)
• Endoscopic varicose vein removal and minimally-invasive vein removal surgery
• Gentle suction removal of lipedema

More information on Dr. Florian Netzer

Some testimonials from patients treated by Dr. Netzer:

“Because this was my third treatment in the last ten years and all three treatments were very different (from stripping to laser treatments), Dr. Netzer’s method was absolutely the most comfortable and best looking at the end. And I can speak from experience. I can and will recommend him without any ifs or buts. Regards…”

“I am more than satisfied with the care in surgery as well as in hospital. Excellent service, even post-operative. I am very exited for the end result in a few months. Until now I can safely recommend the treatment by Dr. Netzer.”

“His special treatment for varicose veins is simply great! My left leg had been operated on in the very bloody, traditional way 2 years ago. Afterwards I had needed to wear compression stockings for 6 weeks. For the removal of a large varicose vein on my left leg, I looked up Dr. Netzer’s practice after having seen a report on the television to get more information on his method. He took quite a bit of time to explain everything to me; he’s a very nice and competent doctor. The operation and everything after went exactly as he had told me: two small scars, which are almost invisible now, basically no pain and I only had to wear the stockings for 24 hours! There is no other choice for varicose vein removal beside him.”

“Very good, exhaustive information and consulting about the findings and the possible treatments. Vivid description of each procedure.”

“I felt very well taken care of in the Iatros Klinik! I came through the surgery very well and am completely satisfied!”

“The whole process in the clinic is really great. Dr. Netzer explains everything very well. You can definitely put your trust in this clinic.”

“Between Feb. 24th and Feb. 26th I was at the clinic for OP (venous insufficiency). Initially sceptical, I became confident very quickly. I can only stress that this operation was a breeze and that immediately after the operation, as well as 3 days later, I had no complaints. I can go swimming again or go to the gym to work out without any problems. I thank Dr. Netzer and his team very much. I can definitely recommend Dr. Netzer and his team.”

“Recommended for anyone with any type of vein issues. Diagnosis and examination were very precise and Dr. Netzer took a lot of time to explain everything. OP prepation and OP care were the best and perfect (very friendly and trustworthy personnel in the clinic). Even the post-op exam (1 day later) was perfect. I would let Dr. Netzer operate on me any time.”
