Ponosh Vascular is focused on providing you the best quality and most up-to-date vascular care available. Whilst health care is expensive, we are here to look after you and make your experience as “pain-free” as possible in every sense of the word.
As a result we are a NO GAP (no out of pocket expenses) service for all inpatient or in-hospital medical procedures that Mr Ponosh provides with all health funds. These funds include :
All radiology imaging at Ponosh Vascular, through our integrated vascular ultrasound service Perth Vascuscan is bulk-billed without exception.
Other imaging or tests such as CT, MRI, nuclear medicine or blood tests required by Mr Ponosh through external medical providers will be requested as “bulk billed” for your benefit.
These investigations through third parties have costs beyond our control but we will always try to refer you to the most cost-effective and best quality service.
Mr Ponosh’s regular anaesthetist’s are also no gap providers for the majority of health funds. They will discuss this further with you personally. Please see our Theatre Team page for further information regarding our anaesthetist’s.
However, some procedures undertaken within the rooms as a result of Health Fund and Federal Government restrictions are not fully covered by your private health insurance or Medicare. The only procedures that fall in this unfortunate situation with Mr Ponosh are injection sclerotherapy and minimally invasive endovenous vein treatments (Radiofrequency & Laser Ablation). This is beyond Mr Ponosh’s control.
Ponosh Vascular now offers Zip Pay to our patients to assist if required.
Ponosh Vascular is a busy practice and our office based procedures (radio-frequency ablation, sclerotherapy & laser) appointments are in very high demand and unfortunately do attract waiting lists.
Your appointment is reserved especially for you. Although these are office based procedures, they are still medical procedures with complicated logistics and can not be filled at short notice.
We understand that at times appointments need to be changed.
Under this cancellation policy we appreciate your co-operation as below :
These cancellation fees are automatic. If you feel you have extraordinary or emergency circumstances please notify us in writing via email and our management will give your matter due consideration.
This policy does not apply for consultations with Ponosh Vascular or ultrasounds with Perth Vascuscan.
We ask for your assistance and adherence to our cancellation policy to help us provide a better service to you and your health journey.
Endovascular Stents are minimally invasive “scaffolds” that are placed inside arteries to treat and keep blockages open. The stent shown here, the Cook Zilver PTX is a “drug eluting stent” that slowly releases a chemical to help reduce re-narrowing and improve long term outcomes.
Endovascular Aortic Aneurysm Repairs (EVAR) is now the commonest, minimally invasive treatment for this potentially life-threatening arterial “ballooning”. These grafts are a re-lining of your arteries using state of the art tailor made grafts. This video demonstrates the Gore Excluder C3 graft commonly used by Mr Ponosh
Coil Embolization is used to block arteries or veins through a minimally invasive procedure in a planned controlled fashion. It is often used to treat Pelvic Congestion Syndrome (Ovarian Vein Embolization) or as part or aneurysm treatment.
The Cordis Outback Elite Catheter is a novel system to allow the opening of blocked arteries. Using a “subintimal” or through the blockage technique, this device allows Mr Ponosh to treat challenging blockages in you arteries by this device making a new channel in your arteries.
Endovascular Staples are very small “screws” used to secure aortic endografts in some situations. These anchors are placed in a minimally invasive procedure from inside the artery.
