Most venous leg ulcers can be CURED.Not healed temporarily with dressings and compression, only to come back again - but cured.So why is this revolutionary?Because most patients are not given the chance of a cure. Patients with leg ulcers are consigned to a life of dressings and compression - and are not told that they might be cured with local anaesthetic vein treatments, performed as walk-in, walk-out procedures. Professor Mark Whiteley is an internationally renowned venous surgeon who has spent over 20 years researching venous disease and treatments. He performed the first endovenous surgery in the UK (March 1999), invented the TRLOP procedure in 2001 and founded The Whiteley Clinic in 2003 as a specialist venous clinic - now called Whiteley Clinics. This book is aimed at anyone who has a venous leg ulcer, or who deals with patients who have venous leg ulcers - either as a carer or as a healthcare professional. Written simply and well-illustrated, it takes the reader from first principles through the investigation and treatments of venous leg ulcers - showing how compression and dressings can be avoided in most patients who can walk. With the changing face of medical research, new guidelines and litigation, anyone who has a venous leg ulcer, or who works with those that suffer from venous leg ulcers, should be aware of the messages in this book.

He was also an examiner for FCPS (Neurology).He was closely associated with medical publishing in the nineties as Editor of JPIMS (Journal of Pakistan Institute of MedicalSciences). He has written articles on stroke, headache and fits and is author of another book titled "Understanding Neurology."He believes in using plain language and in the past has written medical articles in the lay press.In the recent years he has been demonstrating, what he calls "the art of deduction in Neurology" at the bedside to medical students and junior doctors. The format of this book reflects his teaching style.Dr Khawaja lives with his wife in Whitley Bay in the North East of England. They have two sons. Currently he works as a Stroke physician in the NHS. In his spare time he plays the sitar and golf.Why I wrote this book:"What pains me most is to see the junior doctors shunning and avoiding Neurology. It is a beautifully logical subject. Each case is a practical demonstration on cause and effect, an exercise in the art of deduction and indeed a better "whodunit" than any detective fiction could ever produce."
