UK Vein Clinic Expands Nationally

In response to growing patient demand and restricted NHS access, UK Vein Clinic is expanding to bring specialist vein care closer to communities.

Monday 26 January 2026, UK: Leading provider of specialist vein care, UK Vein Clinic, has announced plans to expand its network, with the launch of 17 new clinics in 2026. The expansion will bring the total number of UK sites to 31 strengthening access to advanced varicose and thread vein treatments across the country.

Founded and led by a team of world-class vascular specialists, the clinic has rapidly grown since 2020 to meet rising patient demand for consultant-led, minimally invasive care. The expansion reflects the clinic’s commitment to bringing high-quality vein care closer to patients, reducing travel and wait times, and improving access in regions where specialist vein services are limited.

Varicose and thread veins affect at least one in three people in the UK[1]. If left untreated, people can go on to experience pain, heaviness, swelling, and skin changes – and in more severe cases, conditions including leg ulcers, or blood clots and deep vein thrombosis (DVT).

The expansion comes at a time when demand for vein care continues to grow, driven by an aging population, rising prevalence of venous conditions, and pressures on NHS services. By increasing its clinic network, UK Vein Clinic aims to support patients with timelier, evidence-based care, delivered by world-class consultant-led teams using gold-standard cutting-edge diagnostics, minimally invasive treatments, and vein treatment pathways aligned with best practice standards.

Jason Powell, Founder of UKVein Clinic says: "This expansion represents a major milestone for UK Vein Clinic. With patient demand for specialist vein care continuing to rise, our goal is to bring expert, consultant-led treatment closer to more communities – ensuring people can get back to feeling their most confident and healthy self and back doing the things they love most.”
