Welcome to our 3rd Lymphie Strong interview Q&A featuring Dr. Wei Chen, MD, FACS, Professor of Plastic Surgery, Head, Regional Microsurgery & Supermicrosurgery, and Co-Director, Center for Lymphedema Research and Reconstruction at the Cleveland Clinic. Today's topic: Lymphedema Surgery - What are the newest? What are the controversies? What should I know as a patient?

As shared on World Lymphedema Day 2021, the Center for Lymphedema Research and Reconstruction at Cleveland Clinic is now a resource for Lymphie Strong thanks to Dr. Chen. We also thank him for this great opportunity to ask our questions live last month.

Have Swelling? You Are Not Alone.

We Care Because We Live With It Too

Launched in 2015 by a father and daughter from Texas initially hoping to spread awareness about multigenerational hereditary lymphedema with a blog and a small Facebook group, Lymphie Strong has grown into a global patient support and advocacy community with thousands of members who live with lymphedema and lymphatic disorders of all types.

Lymphie Strong is an online resource for people with lymphedema by people with lymphedema who know from firsthand experience how challenging living with chronic swelling can be and how it impacts your life in both big and small ways.
