Mr Ian Franklin is a full-time private venous specialist, whose areas of expertise include varicose and thread veins, aesthetic phlebology, pelvic vein congestion, deep vein thrombosis, phlebitis, leg swelling and leg ulcers. He is also an expert in the management of COVID-related thrombosis.
Mr Franklin practised as an NHS doctor for 23 years, which included 12 years as consultant vascular surgeon at Imperial College NHS Trust where he performed a full range of arterial, venous and emergency vascular surgery.

Mr Franklin is one of a very small number of vascular surgeons in the UK with extensive acute COVID-19 experience. At the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic, Ian Franklin returned to the NHS Charing Cross Hospital after suspending his private practice and spent several weeks on the frontline attending COVID-19 patients. During which, it became clear that many of those with COVID-19 develop thrombotic (blood clot) problems that can lead to serious effects on blood circulation. Ian Franklin has now reopened his private practice.
