HOW WILL YOU MAKE YOUR DECISION ABOUT TREATMENT?
Beware of doctors who are claiming great experience who are not in a supervised training program or have not completed their training. Be also informed that Membership of different Colleges, including overseas Colleges, simply means that the doctor has paid membership fees and DOES NOT indicate that the doctor has any specific level of expertise. Only Fellows of the Australasian College of Phlebology have the right to be called a Phlebologist. A "Certified Sclerotherapist" is the most "junior" qualification and can be gained with only 1 year of experience.
The qualifications of the practitioner you are considering can easily be checked on the Australasian College of Phlebology Website. Read our pre-treatment checklist below.
Fellowship of the Australasian College is the highest qualification in Phlebology. All the doctors at Vein Doctors Group are Fellows of the Australasian College of Phebology in Queensland.
