Varicose Veins Treatment Brisbane

varicose veins on womans leg Brisbane patients no longer need to choose between a vein doctor limited to one treatment modality and a vascular surgeon requiring a hospital referral. Dr Maged Aziz, a dual-fellowship Vascular and General Surgeon, consults across four Brisbane locations, offering varicose vein treatment and vascular surgery from one specialist.

What Does Varicose Vein Treatment Involve?

Varicose vein treatment addresses visible swollen veins that cause aching, heaviness, or discomfort. Dr Aziz performs a full assessment and scan personally, then recommends a plan based on what your veins need, whether that’s radiofrequency ablation, VenaSeal, sclerotherapy, or surgery when genuinely the more durable option.

What Causes Varicose Veins, and What Makes Them Worse?

Varicose veins are usually driven by an inherited tendency rather than your job, though it doesn’t always follow a predictable family pattern. Certain occupations can make existing symptoms more noticeable. Long stretches on your feet, common in healthcare, education, retail, or trades work, can leave legs aching by day’s end, and long periods seated at a desk or behind the wheel can have a similar effect.

What Can You Expect on Your First Visit?

Your appointment starts with a conversation about your health history and what’s bothering you, followed by an ultrasound scan performed and reviewed by Dr Aziz personally, on-site. You’ll be talked through your options and costs before deciding anything, so there are no surprises once treatment begins.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a referral to book?

No. You can book directly at any of our four Brisbane locations. A referral is only needed to claim a Medicare rebate, and this can be arranged once your appointment is confirmed.

Will I need surgery?

Not necessarily. Most patients are suited to non-surgical treatment. Surgery is only recommended where assessment shows it’s the more durable option, and Dr Aziz can provide it himself rather than referring you elsewhere.

Does my job cause varicose veins?

Not directly. Varicose veins are usually genetic, but jobs involving a lot of standing or sitting can make symptoms more noticeable.

Do I need private health insurance?

No. Consultations and non-surgical treatments do not require private health cover.
