What you can have done in Kaunas
To plan treatment, a specialist usually checks the blood flow in your veins with an ultrasound scan. In Kaunas, the vein consultation with a Doppler scan is a separate procedure: you can choose it alone if you are not sure what you need, or together with a treatment. The treatments offered there are laser vein ablation (EVLA), sclerotherapy, and phlebectomy and vein surgery.
Medbook's guide to vein treatment, under Treatments, explains what each procedure is. If you are not sure which one you need, choose "Not sure yet" under vein treatment when you describe your case. The assistant also asks about chronic conditions, with blood clotting issues among the choices, and about allergies and medications. The clinic looks at the details of your case before it makes you an offer.
How the trip usually goes
Before you travel, gather the results of any earlier ultrasound or Doppler scan of your legs and notes on any earlier vein treatment. You can also have an online consultation before you travel; it is a good moment to ask whether you need a new scan, whether both legs will be treated on the same trip and whether you will need compression stockings afterwards, including for the flight home.
Once you confirm an offer, you add your flight to your roadmap and then the transfer. In Lithuania, transfers between the airport, your accommodation and the clinic are arranged for you, and so is accommodation in central Kaunas. A personal coordinator is there for practical questions during your trip, and aftercare is among the services. How long you stay depends on the procedure, and your clinic confirms the dates in its offer. When you compare offers, look at the dates and at whether follow-up is included.
Questions
Can I have the Doppler scan and the treatment on the same trip?
You can choose both when you describe your case. Whether they fit into one trip is for the clinic to decide after it has looked at your case, and it confirms in its offer what it can do and when.
Can I combine vein treatment with another procedure in Kaunas?
Yes. You can choose several treatments when you describe your case, for example vein treatment together with an orthopaedic procedure, which is also offered in Kaunas. The clinic confirms in its offer what it can do and when.
Is vein treatment offered anywhere else?
Yes. Turkey also offers every vein procedure on Medbook's list. If you choose vein treatment, your results show both countries, and you choose which ones to ask for offers.
