Center for Vein Restoration (CVR) is proud to serve patients at our Munster vein clinic. The physicians and staff at CVR Munster have decades of collective experience treating symptoms of vein diseases such as varicose veins, spider veins, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and other vein conditions related to chronic venous insufficiency (vein disease).
The board-certified physicians at Center for Vein Restoration are world-renowned vein specialists, authors, lecturers, and trainers on the latest techniques for diagnosing and treating vein disease. Commitment to patient care goes beyond physician credentials, however. Our entire team works together to provide our patients with a level of comfort and understanding.
Center for Vein Restoration’s Munster, Indiana vein clinic is in the Chicago metropolitan area suburban town of North Township, in Lake County, Indiana. Our Munster clinic is one of two CVR locations in Lake County, with the other found in Hobart.
Famous for a variety of things to do and see, Munster enjoys several public parks, three lakes, a nine-hole golf course and driving range, eleven miles of bike paths, and a creative public art and sculpture program.
Start your trip to Munster by visiting Community Veterans Memorial, a 6.5-acre park featuring life-sized monuments, bronze and granite sculptures, a brick memorial, and other monuments in loving tribute to veterans of war. Located less than a mile and a half from our Munster vein clinic, the memorial’s mission is to educate its guests about the reality of war and challenge those who shape the future to break the repetition of violence.
Continue learning about historic times at Historic Ford Hangar, the Chicago area's oldest airport building. Located approximately two miles from our Munster vein clinic, it was built by Henry Ford in 1927 to connect his Ford Motor Company manufacturing plants in southland Chicago with his factories in Detroit that produced Ford Trimotor airplanes. The scenic space at Historic Ford Hangar continues to celebrate aviation history and has been completely transformed into a versatile venue for weddings, corporate gatherings, and more.
Opportunities for outdoor adventure are abundant at Munster’s many parks. Centennial Park, just blocks from our vein clinic, boasts the title of the town’s largest. Find a family-friendly atmosphere as you walk through the paths and gardens. Noteworthy amenities at Centennial Park include a spacious dog park, an entertainment stage, a spread of outdoor pavilions, and a 3,300-yard championship layout golf course and practice facility.
East of the Munster branch of the Lake County Library is Community Park, which offers a large pool and sand play area, meandering walking trails, a skate park, a social center for celebrations, concession stands, and more. The park is used for programs and events ranging from local to state levels. It’s also known for hosting special annual events, including the Touch-a-Truck event, the Car Show, and the Community Market.

A native of Chicago, Dominic J. Tolitano, MD, is a nationally recognized cardiovascular surgeon who joined Center for Vein Restoration (CVR) specifically to provide vein care to patients suffering from venous insufficiency. Dr. Tolitano serves as Senior Thoracic and Vascular Surgeon at Franciscan Physicians Hospital and Senior Vascular Surgeon at Mercy Hospital in Munster, in addition to his duties as a vein doctor with CVR.
Dr. Tolitano earned his medical degree at the Chicago Medical School at Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine & Science. He completed a fellowship in cardiovascular and thoracic surgery at Loyola University Medical Center and a general surgery residency at Michael Reese Hospital. For his work as Chief Resident and Chief Fellow at both medical institutions, Dr. Tolitano was awarded certification in cardiovascular and thoracic medicine.
Dr. Tolitano is a specialist in phlebology (a specialist in specialists in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of venous diseases). He uses minimally invasive outpatient therapies to treat varicose veins, spider veins, varicose veins, ulcers, deep vein thrombosis, and other vein problems. His patients rate him highly for his ability to communicate the symptoms and treatment options for venous insufficiency.
Dr. Tolitano was one of the first vascular surgeons to use advanced minimally invasive techniques to treat chronic venous disease. In practice for over three decades, he has performed thousands of vein procedures to treat chronic venous insufficiency.
“I have been in a fortunate position to watch this exciting field of medicine evolve over the past decade,” Dr. Tolitano says. “The Center for Vein Restoration is on the cutting edge of our field, and I am proud to have joined them.” – Dr. Dominic J. Tolitano
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.
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:
Itching
Swelling
Varicose veins
Spider veins
Feelings of heaviness
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 worsen without treatment.
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:
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.
