Our Vein Clinic in Fredericksburg, Virginia

Center for Vein Restoration’s vein center in Fredericksburg, Virginia, is situated about 50 miles south of Washington, D.C. The Fredericksburg area offers an unmatched combination of history, culture, and natural beauty, making it a captivating destination for travelers of all kinds.

Our clinic is nestled near the famous Rappahannock River. Spanning 195 miles, it’s the longest free-flowing river in the East and boasts countless opportunities for outdoor adventure. The river’s Embrey Dam was blasted open in 2004, which quickly improved habitats for migratory fish such as striped bass and blueback herring while transforming the area into a true angler’s delight. The former Embrey Dam site now gets about 24,000 visitors each year.

Take in even more of the roaring Rappahannock River at the 4-acre Riverfront Park, Fredericksburg’s first official “smart” park. With breathtaking waterfront views, the park also provides an abundance of event space, a meadow and children’s play areas, an interactive water feature, an array of public art, free Wi-Fi, solar-powered lighting, and much more. Just three miles from our clinic, the park is a short walk to downtown businesses and was even awarded Best New Facility in 2023 by the Virginia Recreation and Park Society.

Enhance your Civil War history at the Fredericksburg and Spotsylvania National Military Park, which commemorates four Civil War battles: Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, Wilderness, and Spotsylvania. The park offers the chance for visitors to reflect on the 85,000 men left wounded and 15,000 killed in these tragic battles. Take self-guided tours, explore trails and battlefields steeped in historical significance, and contemplate the noted times of the past. The park also features special programming, science and research opportunities, and youth education.

Continue your adventure back in time by taking a guided tour of George Washington’s Ferry Farm, the boyhood home replica of our first president. Here, visitors can learn about George Washington's early life, as he moved with his family to what is now Stafford County, Virginia, in 1738. Thousands of colonial and Civil War artifacts have been excavated for viewing at the Visitor Center. A newly added exhibit showcases how horses were used and managed through artifacts at the Archaeology Lab.

Afterward, a guided tour of Historic Kenmore — a Georgian-style brick mansion constructed by George Washington’s sister, Betty Washington Lewis, and her husband, Fielding Lewis, will leave visitors mesmerized — not just by the home’s classical architecture, but by the insights they’ll gain about the family’s sacrifices during the Revolutionary War.

History and nature become one at Government Island, an 18th- and 19th-century quarry site that produced sandstone for the White House, the U.S. Capitol, and other buildings in Washington, D.C. About 12 miles from our clinic, the site spans 17 acres, offering visitors the chance to hike a 1.5-mile trail, walk the scenic boardwalk, and observe all kinds of native plants and wildlife

About 26 miles from our clinic off Route 208 is Lake Anna State Park, which has a picturesque beach on the lake, as well as an accessible fishing pond, a boathouse, and a bathhouse-concessions complex. Camping enthusiasts can take their pick from one of the park’s six cabins, 10 two-bedroom cabins, two six-bedroom lodges, and four yurts as they book an overnight stay.

The park spans more than 15 miles of trails perfect for hiking, biking, and horseback riding. Fishing is abundant at the park’s boat ramp, while visitors can also take a guided tour of the Goodwin Gold Mine and pan for gold. Visiting during peak summertime? Don’t forget your bathing suit!

Services at Center for Vein Restoration, Fredericksburg

Our board-certified vascular surgeons offer a wide range of innovative treatment options for leg pain, swelling, cramping, itching, varicose veins, spider veins, restless leg syndrome, ulcers, and other symptoms of vascular disease.

Symptoms of vein problems

When the tiny valves in your leg veins fail to circulate blood back to the heart, it can be a sign of venous disease. The result can be the following:

• Leg pain

• Itching

• Swelling

• Cramping

• Varicose veins

• Spider veins

• Feelings of heaviness

• Skin discoloration

• Ulcers

These symptoms are often the result of venous insufficiency and are unlikely to heal on their own. This common vein condition is progressive and will likely worsen without treatment.

Vein treatment options

Vein care providers at vein treatment clinics use the most advanced minimally invasive treatments available today. CVR’s modern outpatient treatment plans are far superior to the older vein-stripping methods used in the past.

Treatments include VenaSeal, a proprietary medical adhesive that safely closes off varicose veins, and ClariVein, a two-in-one approach that uses an ablation device to inject a sclerosing agent that closes the vein with a tiny rotating wire tip, which destroys the diseased vein.

At Center for Vein Restoration, we offer a wide variety of other treatment options, including:

• Sclerotherapy

• Radiofrequency ablation

• Endovenous laser ablation

• Ambulatory phlebectomy

Vein treatments take approximately an hour or less to complete, and patients can return to their normal routine immediately with few restrictions. No staples or stitches are required because a simple band-aid covers the tiny incisions. Our in-office treatment requires only local anesthetics and recovery and symptom relief are fast, and there is little to no scarring.
