Places to See

Center for Vein Restoration's Suffolk, Virginia, vein center is in an independent city in the Commonwealth of Virginia (meaning it has no county). Suffolk is in the Hampton Roads metropolitan area in Southeast Virginia, which includes Chesapeake, Hampton, Newport News, Norfolk, Portsmouth, and Virginia Beach.

A quiet rural town, Suffolk is a major peanut processing center and transportation hub. Steeped in history, the Suffolk Seaboard Station Railroad Museum allows visitors to go back in time into Suffolk’s rail past. The Queen Anne-style building dates to 1885 and has remained mostly unchanged over the years. Despite closing indefinitely for repairs in 2023, it continues to provide a nostalgic piece of old-time charm for perpetual passersby.

Another historic landmark is Riddick's Folly House Museum. Built-in 1837, “Riddick’s Folly,” as it’s known, has four floors, 21 rooms, and 16 fireplaces. Penciled messages left on the walls by Union and Confederate soldiers are still legible today. It is open to the public and located about 14 miles from our Suffolk vein clinic.

Visitors looking for outdoor adventure will enjoy a trip to the Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge. Don’t be deterred by its name—the area, about 26 miles from our vein clinic, spans nearly 113,000 scenic acres and is home to some of the most vital wildlife habitats in the mid-Atlantic region. With around 47 mammal species, 200 birds, 96 butterflies, and more, its diverse ecosystem inspires a wide range of activism programs and regional and national research projects.

Those curious about outdoor exploration and recreation on a local level can visit Lone Star Lakes Park, about 10 miles from our Suffolk vein clinic. Nestled on over 1,000 acres, the area’s 11 freshwater lakes provide a wealth of fishing and boating opportunities for eager anglers. It also boasts miles of hiking and horse trails, a 3D archery range, a picnic area with grills, a playground, a model airplane flying field, and picturesque landscapes galore.

Fall visitors are lucky—they may be just in time for the Suffolk Peanut Festival. Established in 1941, this yearly tradition celebrates the peanut and its role in the city’s agricultural heritage. It’s held downtown for four days each October and features a variety of seasonal events that guarantee fun for the whole family.

Hear a host of live music and fill up on fabulous festival food—but remember to reserve a spot at its themed special events, which include the Peanut Fest Parade, the crowning of the Peanut Fest Queen and Court, the Chalk Art Competition, the Swamp Roar Motorcycle Rally, and the world’s only Peanut Butter Sculpting Contest. There’s just one question—creamy or crunchy?

More family fun awaits at the Children’s Museum of Virginia, the largest children’s museum in the state. It’s located in Portsmouth, about 11 miles from our Suffolk vein clinic, and features playful, immersive exhibits encouraging imagination and creativity. It’s famed for its Beazley Planetarium, which projects full-dome, captivating digital displays with surround sound.

Other popular attractions include its Wegmans supermarket, where kids can stack shelves, pick out their own groceries, check out at the registers, and even milk a 3D cow, along with the Lancaster antique train and toy collection, a diorama of large-scale operating trains meandering through mountains, woodlands, and cityscapes.

No visit to Suffolk is complete without a trip to Chesapeake Square, about five and a half miles from our Suffolk vein clinic. The mall is home to dozens of local and national retailers and eateries and regularly hosts family-friendly events.

Ultimately, Suffolk is home to a charming blend of historic, cultural, and natural sites that provide a glimpse into past and present Southern life, making it a memorable destination for all visitors.

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:

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:

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 outpatient vein treatments require only local anesthetics. Recovery and symptom relief are fast, and there is little to no scarring.
