The Chiltern Medical Clinic - Goring on Thames

Dr Niall Munnelly is the Medical Director and founder of the Chiltern Medical Clinic. He qualified as a medical doctor in 1990 in Dublin, Ireland. From its inception, the Chiltern Medical Clinic has been at the leading edge of medical aesthetics. The Clinic is unique in both quality and character - a range of state-of-the-art lasers and Dr Niall Munnelly on site most days with his team - and it has developed into one of the most advanced and comprehensive centres of its kind anywhere.

Dr Munnelly provides a very high level of individualised care - performing personal private consultations and education with every patient. Patients can be assured that Dr Munnelly uses only state-of-the-art equipment and products to ensure the health and well being of his patients.

Our expertise is everything from injectables for lines/wrinkles to a laser treatment for facial veins/leg veins, hair removal, acne, pigmentation, tattoo removal to advice on skincare. Choosing whether to have a cosmetic treatment is no longer just a medical decision but has become an important lifestyle choice. Cosmetic surgery is a medical science that is constantly evolving, with progressive techniques, sophisticated technology, and exciting new ideas. In an effort to keep abreast of these new developments, Dr. Munnelly regularly attends conferences to ensure that the techniques offered at the Chiltern Medical Clinic are the most up-to-date at all times.

Dr Stephen Tristram is an Associate Specialist in vascular surgery. He is extremely well respected in his field. He has appeared on BBC Television’s The One Show talking about the treatment of varicose veins and demonstrating an innovative non-surgical technique available at Chiltern Medical Clinic. He was involved in the development of Ultra sound guided techniques for the treatment of varicose veins and ran a large European study in 2001. He lectures widely on his interests and sits on The BUPA Consensus panel for vascular treatments.

His expertise is in the scanning and treatment by injection and compression sclerotherapy of leg veins. This technique allows for the treatment of larger blue veins (reticular and varicose veins) which in the past would only be amenable to surgical treatment. Also the use of “foam” as the agent which is injected has revolutionised the treatment of larger leg veins by injection. He uses a Duplex scanner which allows him to identify problems in the larger vessels such as “leaking” valves and perforator veins which are the usual source of thread veins and varicose veins. The scanner also allows him to accurately visualise and safely inject larger veins which would be sometimes impossible with the naked eye. It is important to provide the right compression to these veins after treatment and we provide the correct medical grade compression stockings for this purpose.
