Lipedema, which is also known as painful fat syndrome, is often diagnosed as morbid obesity. This misclassification can lead to a lack of appropriate treatment, negatively impacting mobility, overall health, comfort, and outlook on life.
At Total Lipedema Care, we specialize in diagnosing, treating, and researching Lipedema. Led by Dr. Jaime S. Schwartz and Dr. Karen Herbst, we aim to help you regain a healthy life without the unrelenting pain and expansive swelling that comes with Lipedema.
Dr. Schwartz is a board-certified plastic surgeon specializing in the surgical treatment of challenging Lipedema cases. He also specializes in body contouring after massive weight loss.
Our team at Total Lipedema Care is committed to helping our patients feel their best.
