Dr. Stanley Rockson, Director of Stanford’s Lymphedema Clinic and a leading authority in lymphatic disease, unveiled groundbreaking findings at the recent Venous Symposium. His study offers invaluable insights into the lived experience of lymphedema patients—and how your clinical interventions can profoundly impact their outcomes.
“It is evident lymphedema has a substantial impact on patient well-being, yet currently the healthcare system appears relatively underprepared to deliver lymphatic healthcare.”
– Dr. Stanley Rockson
Working in the lymphatic disease arena for 35 years, Dr. Rockson was convinced on a subjective, case-by-case basis lymphedema patients feel neglected, overlooked, and dismissed. With a grant from the Centers for Disease Control that allowed him to look at lymphedema as a chronic disease, he was able to conduct this study.

“Any time I mentioned my symptoms to a medical doctor, they’d say ‘that’s interesting’ or ‘perhaps a change in diet.’”
-Lonna G.
Lonna, who lives with chronic venous insufficiency, felt dismissed and ignored by doctors until she finally received a diagnosis of lymphedema.
