Hello!



Would like to hear your opinions and experiences if any!



I am researching this topic at the moment as am having a problem with my veins.



Heard that NearEast Hospital does it - but is it trustworthy??? Had quite a few bad experiences with PAID medical services and almost lost hope for a good service on the island.



Prove me wrong please! ))



Thanks in advance!

I would think that most of the hospitals on the island would be capable of injecting veins, as this is not a new concept it has been around for donkeys years. Also widely used in the treatment of haemorrhoids.



I take it that you have seen a Dr about your veins to see if possible for this procedure to be done on them?

Yes, thanks - already am in touch with the Doctor!



Would like to share my good experience - I went to the Near East Hospital in Lefkosa - met Dr. Aydin Karakuzu, cardio-vascular surgeon - he DID NOT take any money for the first visit & consultation! Incredible man, had worked in USA and is from Ankara, Turkey originally.



I am very pleased with the service so far, have received a LOT of good information on how to maintain my legs in a good shape and help veins not spread that I have not heard about.



Doing some check ups now in regards to what I truly need to do with my veins. Very Happy that I finally found a specialist!!!



If anyone is interested, Dr. Aydin's details are: 0542 885 0101



The Hospital itself is very advanced - i was impressed, and staff were helpful. Hope things go right in the future too!
