Our Sonographers

Sonographers are highly-skilled professionals trained in operating ultrasound systems. Our sonographers are accredited and undergo continuous medical education. Sonography is a post-graduate degree and sonographers come from different undergraduate backgrounds such as radiography, nursing and even medicine.

At Sydney Skin and Vein Clinic, all ultrasound examinations are performed by vascular sonographers.  The Phlebology Vadcular Lab provides a range of  specialised ultrasound scans. The type of scan  requied is determined by the doctor. This will be done to generate the necessary information for the doctors to make a diagnosis of your condition. Specific questions regarding your condition should be reserved for your consultation with our doctors.

Our sonographers also assist the doctors in performing the procedures. This is because most of our procedures are done under ultrasound guidance. They will also assist you in choosing the right compression stockings that will be used after the procedures.

You will meet the sonographers again during the follow-up period as they will scan your legs roughly about 6 weeks anhd then one year after the completion of your treatments.
