Professor Jocelyn Brookes is a professional and caring specialist in patient interactions. His expertise resolves complex conditions such as arteriovenous malformations, varicose veins, and pelvic congestion, providing significant pain relief and improving quality of life after prior misdiagnosis. He provides clear explanations for procedures like various embolisations and angioplasty, which helps patients feel comfortable and informed. Professor Brookes' advanced work in interventional radiology garners appreciation, including specialised AVM care.
In May 2025 Professor Brookes performed a embolosclerotherapy to a recurrent right foot AVM. Thanks to his considerable skill and knowledge the procedure was successful. I appreciated the time he took to explain everything thoroughly. I felt informed and comfortable to ask questions about my concerns. I am delighted with the outcome and so grateful for his approachability and expertise.
Expert, professional and approachable - Dr Brookes is all of these and more
I was seen by Professor Brookes on zoom and subsequently he treated my AVM. His manner and his treatment were excellent, he was very helpful in his advice, provided all of the details needed and then proceeded with the treatment, it could not have gone better.
I was a young mum of two little children and I couldn't stand on my legs without pain. I suffered from varicose veins and pelvic congestion. Every other doctor who I saw told me that should come back when my family was complete. Then somebody recommended Professor Brookes. He had a completely different approach. He immediately dealt with my varicose veins and pelvic congestion. I now am pain free and have slim legs. Professor Brookes changed my quality of life. Professor Brookes has a charming personality. He is warm, friendly and sympathetic. Medically he is the best in his field. If you are fortunate enough to see him in clinic on the NHS you will notice that he has a big que of patients that only want to see Professor Brookes. They don't want to see any other vascular doctor that's part of the team! Professor Brookes THANK YOU!
Thank you so much.

You are very kind!
I have a lot of trust in Professor Brookes. He is the first medical professional who has connected the vascular issues I have and has given me confidence that things can be done to improve my quality of life. He's also very reassuring and someone I feel I can trust.
Thank you for your generous review
After years and years of very compromised life quality, extreme discomfort and pain, I visited Professor Brookes who identified my relatively severe pelvic congestion syndrome, and proceeded to carry out pelvic vein embolisation. Almost immediately I felt like I had been given my life back. No one else had been able to help before him. He has since had to carry out a couple of further embolisations for new problem veins. He has to be one of the best in this field in the country, if not worldwide! The nurses and team he works with are also always lovely and helpful. A super talented doctor who makes you feel instantly at ease, actually listening to the patient, and clearly explaining everything you would need to know in detail. Topped up with a general impeccable bedside manner, warmth, humour and charm. An overall wonderful experience. I couldn’t more highly recommend. Thank you 🙏 again PB!
You are very kind. Thank you for your review
I have been under Professor Brookes for 10 years to treat my varicose veins and pelvic congestion. There's only ONE Professor Brookes! He always goes out his way to ensure that his patients get outstanding care. He's goes above and beyond his call of duty to make sure his patients are happy with their treatment. Any problems he will contact you to see what he can do to help. THAT'S WHAT YOU CALL AN OUTSTANDING DOCTOR!! Professor Brookes there's no one like you! Forever grateful!
