He decided to completely dedicate himself to the assessment and treatment of chronic venous disease and as such, joined the Australasian College of Phlebology specialist training program and completed his Certificate of Sclerotherapy (by examination). He then established Vein Health Medical Clinic, a vein clinic that is solely dedicated to varicose vein disease and treatment. He has since completed the Graduate Certificate in Vascular Ultrasound which certifies him to accurately perform and report on venous disease using the latest in ultrasound technology.

He also attends yearly conferences of the UIP (International Union of Phlebology), held in Europe and the United States, to constantly stay ahead of the evolving trends in varicose vein treatment.
Dr Paraskevas is currently involved in the training of basic registrars of the College of Phlebology. He provides education and hands on clinical tuition to doctors wishing to enter into the specialty field. He is a regular examiner of both Basic and Advanced Registrars, sitting their preliminary and final oral examinations with the College of Phlebology. In addition to this, Dr Paraskevas regularly provides lectures in the field of phlebology both in a conference and seminar setting.
