Our Patient Journey
STEP 2
Initial consultation
- On arrival, our receptionist will ask you to complete a questionnaire so that details of your past medical history, medications and any allergies can be recorded.
- During the consultation, Dr Gilles Laur will ask you about your symptoms and record your relevant medical history. A thorough examination of your legs will be undertaken.
