Specialist care, worth the trip
If you're in Murchison and living with varicose veins, specialist care is closer than you might think. Nelson Vein Clinic is just over 90 minutes away, and for most patients, that's a single trip that covers assessment, diagnosis, and often treatment planning in one go.
For Murchison residents, the drive to Nelson is often more practical than waiting for a specialist referral through the public system. We offer same-day ultrasound assessment and, where appropriate, same-day treatment planning. Most patients only need to make the trip once or twice in total.
Why choose a dedicated specialist clinic
- Expert ultrasound diagnosis on the day of your consultation
- Walk-in, walk-out treatment, no hospital admission required
- Three proven treatment options: UGS, EVLA and VenaSeal
- Same specialist team from start to finish
- 12-month follow-up included as standard
- Southern Cross affiliated, most major insurers accepted
- No GP referral needed to book your first appointment
At just 90 minutes, Murchison is one of the closest rural communities to our clinic. Many patients are surprised how quickly they can get assessed, advised, and treated.
