The SILVER PLAN Course has everything the basic plan has and includes extra video lessons. In addition, you are able to download audio files which you can listen to on the go - for example on a train or on a walk - in this respect they are a bit like podcasts. These “podcasts” reinforce the information in the videos.  

The silver plan also has an interactive course manual with clickable hyperlinks that take you to primary references and external websites that I have carefully curated myself. This course manual is based on hundreds of hours of personal research. I provide critical appraisal of the literature.  

The silver plan course also provides you with the ability to upload videos of your own injection technique for me to comment on and analyse. This gives you personal feedback and helps you refine your injection technique far more quickly than going it alone. 

When you enrol into the silver plan you will also be invited into a closed online community of international experts where you can ask questions and learn about Microsclerotherapy, not only from me but by others who will often give you a different perspective.  This silver plan course provides additional support and feedback that most doctors and nurses feel is needed.
A Complete Step-by-Step Microsclerotherapy Instruction Course for Doctors and Nurse Independent Prescribers only.
 
It covers all the theory and the practice as well as common difficulties with a "Problem-Solving Approach" to the treatment of blue veins and spider veins affecting the legs.   

This course is a great "Foundation Course" for practitioners who are new to Microsclerotherapy and a thorough "Refresher Course" for those already treating patients. With this solid knowledge-base of Microsclerotherapy, you will have strategies to get better results, fewer complications and better patient satisfaction.   

In this plan you can Upload videos of your injection technique for critical analysis by Dr Haroun Gajraj. In this way, issues can be identified and corrected at an early stage and you can also receive tips and suggestions to refine your technique. You can acquire injection skills quickly.

After completing this course, you will be able to achieve: 
  1. Better vein clearance in fewer appointments; 
  2. More referrals by word of mouth; 
  3. Increased revenue per clinic; and 
  4. A boost to your reputation as the "go-to-specialist for leg spider veins".
