Lipedema

Lipedema Care

Lipedema is a chronic medical condition that primarily affects women and can lead to progressive pain, swelling, and limitations in daily activities. Unlike typical weight gain, lipedema does not improve with diet, exercise, elevation, diuretics, or bariatric surgery.

Our provider has specialized expertise in recognizing and diagnosing lipedema, helping patients get the answers they need. We offer comprehensive, compassionate support focused on improving quality of life and managing symptoms effectively.

Our services include:

• Guidance and referrals for compression therapy

• Coordination of physical therapy

• Evaluation and management of related conditions, such as venous insufficiency

• Referral to vascular and cosmetic surgeons 

We also provide educational resources that patients can share with their primary care providers. These materials are designed to increase awareness, support accurate diagnosis, and encourage coordinated, whole-person care by addressing how lipedema can impact overall health and interact with other medical conditions.
