Mark S. Whiteley

Mark Whiteley MS FRCS(Gen) is a recognised world expert in varicose veins, pelvic congestion syndrome, venous leg ulcers, and venous disease. Mark is a consultant venous surgeon who trained at St. Bartholomew's Hospital in London (1981-1986) and who was a lecturer in vascular surgery at Oxford University (1995-1998).

Dissatisfied with how varicose veins, pelvic congestion syndrome, venous leg ulcers, and other venous diseases were treated, Mark set up The Whiteley Clinic in 2001 - a specialist vein unit to research venous disease and treat patients with varicose veins, pelvic congestion syndrome, venous leg ulcers and other vein problems.

Mark performed the first endovenous varicose vein operation in the UK in March 1999 which started the current endovenous revolution. He invented the TRLOP procedure in 2001, and performed the first endovenous microwave treatment for varicose veins in Europe. In May 2019 he was the second doctor in the world (and the first in the UK) to treat varicose veins with High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) with Echotherapy.

He founded The College of Phlebology in 2011 and in October 2019, launched the College of Phlebology Venous Registry so that doctors can benchmark their outcomes against other doctors, see which techniques give the best results and so patients can find the doctors with the best results.

As an inventor, researcher and teacher, Mark is now putting his knowledge and experience into books - the first being published in 2011.
