Collaborating to provide care pathways

Tackling waiting lists in Vascular

Due to the immense strain on cancer and cardiovascular services in the NHS, the waiting lists for non-life or limb threatening conditions, such as varicose veins, are increasing rapidly. Varicose vein surgery is one of the most frequently performed operations within the NHS. However, there is a notable disparity in the provision of varicose vein services across the UK. Our team of clinical specialists in vascular work closely with you to create tailored out-of-hours clinics that not only offer exceptional patient care but are also cost-effective.

Quality patient care

We prioritise clinical safety and patient-centered care in our comprehensive range of medical insourcing services, which includes initial referrals, treatment, expert guidance, and discharge. Our team provides care both in-person and virtually to ensure timely and effective treatment. Services cover the following, 7 days a week:

  • Varicose veins
  • aortic aneurysm
  • lower limb arterial disease including gangrene and threatened limb loss
  • diabetic foot disorders
  • arterial disease in the carotid arteries causing a risk of stroke

"As a highly experienced consultant vascular surgeon of 25 years and professor of vascular surgery at Imperial College, I strongly support insourcing projects for Agile Insourcing.

Services tailored to your department’s needs

Insourcing services for Vascular

Depending on your challenges, we can help you with a range of vascular elective services:

The following services are very suitable for insourcing projects and will make significant impact to waiting times: 
 

  • Surgical repair of most arterial conditions are treated either urgently or as an emergency as they represent a threat to life or limb 
  • Varicose vein treatment is always elective and represents the biggest target for insourcing 
  • Ultrasound diagnostics of varicose veins and a case local anaesthetic laser or radio frequency treatment of veins 
  • Elective diagnostics and clinic appointments for arterial conditions - these require consultation with a vascular surgeon and access to ultrasound Doppler and city scanning
