Dr. Joseph Dayan watched his grandmother live with Parkinson’s disease and saw doctors state there were no solutions or ways to improve her condition. Years later, he saw the same look in patients living with lymphedema who were told the same thing.
 
“They were told to wear compression garments for life while watching their limbs progressively swell,” he shared. “I knew there had to be a solution.”
 
Today, that solution exists. At The Institute, Dr. Dayan and his team provide cutting edge surgical interventions that offer real hope for patients who once felt out of options.
 
Procedures include:
• Lymphaticovenous Anastomosis
• Free Lymph Node Transfer
• Lymphedema Liposuction
• Lymphedema Mass Excision
• Breast Reconstruction with Lymphedema Surgery
 
These advanced techniques can support improved comfort, reduced swelling, better mobility, and a meaningful improvement in quality of life. Every patient is unique and results vary, but patients no longer have to accept the idea that nothing can be done.
 
If you have been told to simply “live with it,” you may have more options than you think.
