Lymphedema

Lymphedma

Our hospital’s lymphedema program focuses on alleviating the swelling that occurs in the legs, arms, face, neck, abdomen or chest when the lymphatic system does not work properly. Our program is based on a patient's needs and goals and results in reduced swelling and improved quality of life. The program also teaches the patient and family how to manage the condition, and provides follow-up care and resource referrals, as needed.
