Professor Mark Whiteley is a consultant venous surgeon who has won multiple international and national prizes for his work, and founder of The Whiteley Clinic chain of specialist vein clinics, 6 currently and 2 more opening this year in the UK, which specialises in venous procedures. After completing his medical training in London, he successfully opened his first clinic in 2002 and now has an expanding chain of clinics in the UK specialising in endovenous surgery and offering The Whiteley Protocol®, not just "his own clinic"!
Whiteley is known for completing the first endovenous (non-surgical) keyhole surgery to treat varicose veins in the UK, which was completed in 1999. In 2011, he opened the College of Phlebology. He sits on the editorial board of the Journal of Vascular Surgery Venous and Lympahatic disorders....[1] and has been a contributing author to multiple international consensus documents in venous surgery.[2]
Early life and education
editWhiteley was born in Bristol in 1962 and attended King Edward’s School, Bath, from 1974 – 1981. He then studied at The Medical College of St Bartholomew’s Hospital, as part of the University of London, graduating in 1986, before continuing his training.
Career
editWhiteley’s first training appointment was as house surgeon at St. Bartholomew’s Hospital in London, before moving to Homerton Hospital in February 1987. Whiteley stayed in this position until October, when he moved into a temporary lecturer position, teaching human anatomy at The Medical College of St. Bartholomew’s Hospital under Prof OJ Lewis. He then moved to a Senior House Officer position in Accident and Emergency at St. Bartholomew’s and Homerton Hospitals.
Following this, Whiteley began a surgical rotation in Bristol and Weston-super-Mare hospitals, in orthopedic surgery, urology, and vascular surgery. This lasted until July 1990, when Whiteley moved into a registrar in general surgery position at Weston General Hospital. He then began a career registrar rotation around Portsmouth hospitals, where he won the Surgeons-in-Training Medal at the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh for his research into POSSUM and P-POSSUM [3] surgical scoring systems.
Whiteley was appointed to be research fellow and then clinical lecturer (1992-1994) in the Royal United Hospital in Bath, under Professor Michael Horrocks [4], where he was awarded his Master of Surgery and won the Norman Tanner Medal [5] at the Royal Society of Medicine for his research. He was then appointed as a lecturer in vascular surgery at the University of Oxford 1995-1997 under Prof Sir Peter Morris[6]. Whiteley was appointed as consultant vascular surgeon at The Royal Surrey County Hospital in Guildford in 1998, resigning in 2007 to concentrate solely on venous surgery. In 2013 he was appointed as Visiting Professor to the University of Surrey, resigning in 2020 to take up an Honorary Professorship at The College of Phlebology.
In March 1999, Whiteley performed the first endovenous thermal ablation in the UK. This procedure led to the founding of the Whiteley Clinic[7]
In 2001, Whiteley performed the world’s first endovenous perforator vein closure, using a new technique developed by Whiteley and his colleague, Judith Holdstock, known as TRansLuminal Occlusion of Perforators (TRLOP)[8]. This is a pinhole alternative that can be performed under local anesthetic, and under ultrasound guidance. This makes the surgery and recovery time much faster.
This new technique resulted in the development of the VNUS RFS device. After presenting this in America in 2004, US-based vascular surgeons began performing the technique, renaming it Percutaneous Ablation of Perforators (PAPS)[9]
In 2004, Whiteley published a photograph, an ultrasound and a description of a thrombus at the saphenofemoral junction after endovenous ablation with radiofrequency. This was then named Endovenous Heat Induced Thrombosis (EHIT) in 2005[10]
Also in 2004, Whiteley published the first description of the difference between thrombotic occlusion leaving a living “vein wall skeleton” and ablation by transmural death of the vein wall. This difference suggested that the thermoablation process required the transmural death of the vein wall, with lesser injury, resulting in thrombosis and recanalisation[11]. Later, in 2006, Whiteley introduced the idea of a “living skeleton of the vein wall” in a research paper[12].
In 2019, Whiteley performed the first successful endovenous procedure of the Eco Endovenous Microwave Catheter for varicose veins[13]. Also in 2019, Whiteley successfully performed the first High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) Sonovein closure of varicose veins in the UK. This procedure also made him the second doctor to use the system worldwide, and the world’s first commercial case[14]
The Whiteley Clinic
editThe Whiteley Clinic was founded in 2002, following the success of the UK’s first endovenous (non-surgical) “keyhole” varicose vein operation in March 1999. The revolutionary new operation removed the need to strip the veins from patients, which was often the case in traditional varicose vein surgery, which had various complications such as deep vein thrombosis[15], pulmonary embolism, and wound complications including infection.
The clinic specialises in the treatment for varicose veins through endovenous surgery. It also offers treatment for venous leg ulcers, aesthetic phlebology, and is a globally leading clinic for pelvic congestion syndrome. It was founded by Professor Whiteley, along with his colleague, Judith Holdstock.
Founded in Guildford, the clinic has further branches in London, Bristol, Poole, Henley-on-Thames and Manchester, as of 2024.
The College of Phlebology
editIn 2011, Whiteley set up The College of Phlebology after noticing that there was previously no dedicated venous training college in the UK[16]. This was because there was no role in the NHS dedicated solely to venous surgery. Surgeons that perform venous surgeries on the NHS are either specialist vascular surgeons, general surgeons or radiologists.
After years of research, it was found that varicose vein surgery is medical and not cosmetic, as was previously believed by surgeons. The research also brought new, complex technologies to perform endovenous surgeries, creating a requirement to teach these methods. Whiteley saw this requirement and set up the college to train surgeons.
The College of Phlebology runs courses, conferences, and contains a registry of doctors around the world in order to monitor surgeries and results[17]. Conferences are typically held in the UK, with representatives holding conferences internationally, in France and Turkey.
Whiteley Medical Instruments
editWhiteley established Whiteley Medical Instruments Ltd in August 2022, as a company to produce medical instruments[18]. The first instrument is due to be released in 2024.
Published works
editWhiteley has published over 150 peer-reviewed papers during his career, following the publication of his 1998 thesis, ‘The non-invasive investigation of aorto-iliac arterial disease’.
He has also written five books and contributed over 15 chapters in textbooks. His books are self-published by his company, Whiteley Publishing Ltd, and include:
· Understanding Venous Reflux – The Cause of Varicose Veins and Venous Leg Ulcers. Published September 2011
· Advances in Phlebology and Venous Surgery Volume 1. Published December 2017
