doctor burgos de la obra, médico especialista en lipedema

Dr. Burgos de la Obra, a surgeon specializing in the treatment of lipedema

Dr. Burgos de la Obra, medical director and chief surgeon of Lipemedical, was the first Spanish surgeon to devote himself exclusively to lipedema treatment using and developing the WAL technique and is one of the pioneers in treating this medical condition. He is currently the head of Lipemedical team coordinating a group of surgeons dedicated to the treatment of lipedema. In Lipemedical we are proud to count on a European reference in the diagnosis and treatment of this clinical entity.
 
 

Dr. Burgos’ approach to lipedema is clear: “Lipedema should be approached as a medical problem and not as a purely aesthetic condition. This disease can and must be effectively treated to free the patient from the symptoms and prevent progression. It is a duty of the medical community to know about this clinical entity and help spread information about its diagnostic criteria and treatment to avoid patients suffering the lack of knowledge of their own disease and its incorrect diagnosis.”
