Dr David Orsbourn has become the go-to man in Marlborough for Varicose Vein treatment . His clinics at the Churchill Private Hospital have grown in popularity , and David has met this demand with more frequent clinics over the years since he began practicing here .
David finds that he no longer needs to spread the word about the ' walk in , walk out ' vein treatments he performs , because his patients are doing it for him . He says , “ People can ’ t believe the difference it makes , it ’ s quite literally life changing .” To the extent that David finds he is regularly treating family , friends and workmates of past patients who have seen the results from the non-invasive procedures he performs , and have consequently unveiled their legs for the first time in years !
But David stresses , it ’ s not just about aesthetics , it ’ s also about pain relief . He says , “ People can ’ t believe how instantaneous the relief from heavy legs is following the procedure .” He continues , “ I treated one client who drove to work every day , because she couldn ’ t endure the short fifteen-minute walk home ; she was literally walking to work the day after her procedure .”
David adds that the great advantage that this method of treatment has over surgery is the minimal downtime involved , saying , “ The vein treatments we perform have very little impact on daily living following the procedure . He explains that there are three simple posttreatment rules to follow ; wear compression stockings , walk forty-five minutes a day and avoid immediate international air travel .
Asked whether the surgery is painful , David assures us that he ’ s compared favourably to the dentist . The treatments offered are all outpatient procedures and require no general anaesthesia or hospital stay . David says , “ In fact you ’ re even able to drive yourself home after a short walk ”.
It ’ s clear that David has a real passion for what he does , he says , “ I never tire of seeing the profound effect the results of these treatments have ; to know that I ’ ve helped improve a client ’ s quality of life , is just gold , it means I ’ ve done what I set out to do .”
