Varicose veins rarely need urgent treatment, but heavy, throbbing legs and veins you'd rather not see can wear you down. In Rossett, Mr Tamer Ghatwary — a consultant vascular surgeon who also works at the Countess of Chester Hospital — examines your legs, explains what's causing the problem and, if treatment makes sense, offers foam sclerotherapy or ClariVein under local anaesthetic.
The clinic is on Station Road, Rossett, LL12 0HE — a short drive south of Chester along the A483, with free parking on site.

Mr Ghatwary examines your legs, takes your history and talks through whether treatment is worthwhile and which method suits your veins.
A foam medicine injected into the problem veins so they close and fade; done under local anaesthetic.
Both legs can be treated with foam at the same appointment.
A slim catheter seals the faulty vein from inside, combining a rotating tip with a sclerosant; one leg per session.
Easy to reach from across the region.
Patients come to us from Chester and the villages along the Dee, as well as from Wrexham and Flintshire — Rossett sits roughly halfway.

What causes varicose veins? +
Veins in the legs have small one-way valves that keep blood moving up towards the heart. When those valves weaken, blood pools and the vein stretches, twists and bulges. Family history, getting older, pregnancy, carrying extra weight and jobs that keep you on your feet for long hours all make it more likely.
When should I worry about varicose veins? +
Most varicose veins are a nuisance rather than a danger. Get them checked if they ache, itch or make your ankles swell, if the skin around them darkens, hardens or breaks down, or if a vein becomes hot, red and tender. A leg that is suddenly swollen and painful, or bleeding from a vein that won't stop, needs urgent medical help — call 999 or go to A&E for heavy bleeding, and NHS 111 for sudden swelling.
How can varicose veins be removed? +
At Bridge House we use two methods. Foam sclerotherapy injects a medicine, mixed into a foam, that makes the vein close so the body gradually absorbs it. ClariVein closes a larger faulty vein from the inside through a thin catheter. Mr Ghatwary recommends the one that fits your veins after examining your legs.
How much does varicose vein treatment cost? +
The vascular consultation is £200. Foam sclerotherapy costs from £1,250 (one leg) or from £1,750 (both legs), and ClariVein is £2,750 per leg, treated one leg at a time. Your exact fee is confirmed at the consultation before anything is booked.
Can I walk after treatment? +
Yes. Both treatments are done under local anaesthetic, so you walk out of the clinic afterwards. Most people are back to their usual routine within a day or two, and Mr Ghatwary will explain the aftercare, including any compression stocking he advises.
Do I need a GP referral? +
No — you can book a vascular consultation directly. If you have a GP letter, bring it along, but it isn't required.
