Consultant Vascular & Endovascular Surgeon

Mr. Najem treated my mother varicose veins. He explained the operation very well. My mother was happy with the operation and the team in theatre were very friendly.

Profile

I have been a Consultant Vascular Surgeon in the NHS since 2020. I gained wide experience in vascular surgery through my training at Cambridge University Hospital and West London Vascular & Interventional Centre (WeLVIC), as well as a consultant in Bedford, Milton Keynes Vascular Unit.

I have a special interest in venous surgery and have participated in a number of multi-centric venous research and trials.

I specialize in vascular diabetic foot management and venous surgery, with a special interest in varicose veins treatment such as Endovenous Radiofrequency ablation, Glue treatment and Foam sclerotherapy.

To date, I have performed over 1,700 varicose vein procedures. I also treat:

  • Deep venous disease, e.g. May-Thurner syndrome
  • Arterial vascular procedures, e.g. carotid endarterectomy
  • AAA repair
  • Lower limb bypass/angio

I successfully lead the re-structuring of the vascular service in West London Vascular & Interventional Centre which included the introduction of a new varicose veins service.
