Lymphedema
Lipedema

Congenital or acquired dysfunction of small vessels that carry lymph fluid (water plus proteins) back to venous system in the left neck. This can lead to progressive lower extremity swelling.

Abnormal fat distribution due to metabolic changes that are unknown at this time. Painful deposits of fat develop in the lower legs, thighs and hips. It is often mistaken for lymphedema but can easily be distinguished by a trained physician on physical exam.

The Patient Experienceere

Dr. Robbins looked at my imaging and made an appointment that same day for me to come in. At Vascular Tyler, it’s just like a family environment every time I come in here. If I have to go the doctor’s (office), this is where I want to go.

L.Cunningham Patient

We don’t want to spend a whole lot of time with rehabilitation or in some sort of medical facility, so it was great discovering that there’s only little or no downtime. It was a matter of hours instead of days or weeks.

B. Finch Patient

I had excruciating pain and was told I needed a knee replacement. But Dr. Robbins said I just need vascular surgery. They gave me relief from my pain, and they’re kind and interested in you as a patient and a person. This is the place to come.
