Varicose veins are one of the most common chronic venous conditions in adults. The condition is caused by faulty venous valves that allow blood to pool in the legs, leading to heaviness, swelling, cramps and visible twisted veins. Heredity is one of several risk factors among the causes, alongside age, pregnancy and standing work.
This category contains evidence-based articles on symptoms, causes and treatment options. If you are in health insurance group 1 and have a valid referral from your GP, the examinations and treatments covered by the clinic's public health agreement are covered by the Danish public health insurance, so you pay nothing for them yourself. If you are in health insurance group 2, there is usually a small co-payment under the health insurance rules. If you are paying yourself, contact the clinic for a price. Self-pay prices: EVLT DKK 12,000 per leg, classic varicose vein surgery DKK 8,000 per leg. The clinic confirms in writing what the price covers, and whether additional services may apply, before you accept the pathway. Contact our clinic in Charlottenlund for a duplex ultrasound assessment.
