Service Area · Sheffield Vein Clinic
If you’re based in Rotherham and looking for specialist assessment of varicose veins, Sheffield Vein Clinic offers consultant-led care a short journey away, at our clinic on Ecclesall Road in Sheffield.
Assessment and, where appropriate, treatment both take place at our clinic on Ecclesall Road in Sheffield — the service is consultant-led throughout, meaning Professor Stephen Goode, a Consultant Interventional Radiologist, personally carries out your duplex ultrasound scan and treatment planning rather than delegating this to a technician. You can submit an enquiry at any time to discuss a consultation; this doesn’t confirm an appointment, but starts the conversation with our clinic team.
Rotherham’s proximity to Sheffield — the two towns are practically neighbours — means a specialist consultation doesn’t have to mean a long day out. Patients from Rotherham are often referred by their GP for cosmetic or symptomatic varicose veins, or choose to self-refer directly. Either way, the same consultant, Professor Stephen Goode, carries out your assessment, your duplex ultrasound scan, and — where appropriate — your treatment, rather than handing you between different members of a team.
Your first visit is a consultation with Professor Stephen Goode, including a full clinical assessment and, where clinically indicated, a duplex ultrasound scan performed by him personally — not delegated to a sonographer. This scan maps exactly where reflux is occurring in your veins. Together, you’ll discuss the treatment options relevant to your individual scan findings, and you’ll have the opportunity to ask questions before any decision is made. There’s no pressure to proceed with treatment at this stage.
Depending on what your duplex ultrasound shows, your treatment plan may include endovenous laser ablation (EVLA) to close an incompetent vein, foam sclerotherapy for smaller varicose tributaries, or microsclerotherapy for thread veins. If you’ve had treatment before and your varicose veins have returned, our recurrent varicose veins page explains how we approach reassessment. Every recommendation is based specifically on what your own scan shows, not a standard package.
Our pricing is transparent and published in full on our pricing page:
Rotherham is one of the closest towns to Sheffield city centre, linked by the A630 and the M1. The drive to Ecclesall Road is generally straightforward outside peak periods. On-street parking is available near the clinic, subject to current signage, and regular bus and train services also connect Rotherham to Sheffield city centre. We’d always suggest checking live travel conditions before you set off, particularly if you’re driving during rush hour.
You can see genuine, consented before-and-after examples from patients treated at Sheffield Vein Clinic in our before & after gallery. Individual results vary, and treatment recommendations always follow your own consultation and duplex ultrasound findings.
Whether treatment is appropriate for you, and which option is most suitable, depends on your individual clinical assessment and duplex ultrasound findings — this page describes the general service, not a guaranteed course of treatment. If you notice sudden, significant leg swelling, redness or pain that develops quickly around a vein, this is occasionally a sign of a condition needing prompt medical assessment; our thrombophlebitis case study explains one such example and when to seek urgent care.
Is Sheffield Vein Clinic easy to reach from Rotherham?
Yes — Rotherham is one of the nearest towns to our Sheffield clinic, generally a short journey by car or public transport via the A630/M1 corridor.
Can I have my assessment and treatment on the same visit if I'm travelling from Rotherham?
Your first visit is a consultation and duplex ultrasound scan. If treatment is appropriate, this is usually arranged as a separate visit once your individual treatment plan has been discussed with you — this isn't a same-day treatment service.
What does the initial consultation include?
Your first visit is a 45-minute consultation with Professor Stephen Goode, including a full duplex ultrasound scan performed by him personally, and a written treatment plan if treatment is appropriate. This is £195.
Can I drive myself home after treatment?
Most patients are able to drive themselves home after EVLA or foam sclerotherapy, as these are performed under local anaesthetic. We'll confirm what's appropriate for you individually before your treatment visit.
I'm not sure whether my varicose veins need treatment at all — should I still book a consultation?
That's exactly what the consultation is for. Not every varicose vein needs treating, and a duplex ultrasound scan is the only reliable way to know whether there's underlying reflux that would benefit from treatment, or whether monitoring is more appropriate. There's no obligation to proceed with treatment after your assessment.
How do I get in touch?
