I highly recommend Dr. Schwartz for the treatment of lipedema. He is a specialist in treating this disease which is so important due to it’s sensitive nature because of the involvement of the lymphatic system. His Manual Extraction technique is key, especially for those of us with larger nodules. He is such a compassionate, understanding and caring doctor. So easy to talk with and he really understands this disease and what it takes to reduce the pain, increase mobility and decrease stress that is associated when living with this disease. He has such a wonderful team working with him. Courtney and everyone in his office has been extremely attentive and they go “the extra mile” to be sure that I am well cared for, informed and are available to answer questions, etc.I have late stage lipedema and have had three surgeries with Dr. JS all giving me wonderful results. Better mobility, reduction of pain in areas treated and really life changing.

First, Dr. Schwartz is always saying BMI is bullshit, which I agree! You know what’s also bullshit? Being asked your BMI when scheduling a consultation and being told they he has a BMI limit!!! But that wasn’t my reason for not having surgery with him, it was because his office never responded after I told them I had Medicare but would self pay and handle the claims on my own. You know who did call me? Hackers who informed me that all my information and photos from TLC were posted online. I called TLC and again no response. I’ve filed a HIPAA complaint with HHS, healthcare providers have to take proper precautions to secure our private data, they’re also supposed to notify patients when there is a security breach. Very disappointing that a surgeon who is always talking about how much he cares for patients puts us at risk and won’t even return a call.

Patients beware. I made several consultations with different Lipedema specialist all will charge a consultation fee also all the other offices disclosed if consultation fee is or isn't refundable. When you call Dr Schwartz office they advise you call will be recorded. Never in my 1st call was informed the consult fee was non refundable. When I call to cancel due to the many reviews of patients saying they were over charged, charged for compression garments they never received or the treatment was not to their satisfaction I decided to go with another surgeon. I called canceling my consult but they will not re fund my $250.00 receptionist said the fee is non refundable like I said to her the other woman I spoke to never said it wasn't the call is recorded she apologized for her co worker not disclosing it so she admitted it was a mistake on the office end. I'm disputing this charge with my credit card I just want any person considering this doctor to be aware. I wish you all the best with your Lipedema journey.

Dr. Schwartz' medical records were hacked and no notification has gone out to his patients. I found out in an online group. Since nothing has been publicly said by his office, I'm not sure when it happened, but it has been confirmed.My negative experience with him and his office as a whole (excluding two employees) through two lipedema reduction surgeries wasn't enough for me to post a review, but this is an egregious breach of confidence.There are other surgeons out there now who treat lipedema and properly care for their patients and hire efficient, capable office staff - don't let the glitz and glam of his social media presence fool you.

Dr Schwartz is not thorough or consistent with symmetry &amp; doesn't focus on smoothing out or preventing irregularities the way he should. Women want to be more attractive at the end of the pain &amp; suffering. When I expressed my feelings about his work, he instantly got offended &amp; started defending his work. He also told me I was free to go to a different surgeon to clean up his work. His "special" surgical technique is gimmicky &amp; not living up to the hype. My results are bording on "botched" &amp; it wasn't worth it for me.

I am a patient of Dr. Schwartz at Total Lipedema Care and have had a positive experience with him and his team. Dr. Schwartz is professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated to helping individuals manage and treat lipedema. He and his team have been attentive and regularly check on me to ensure my recovery is going smoothly.This has been a life-changing procedure, and I am grateful for the care I’ve received. However, it’s clear that there is a need for greater awareness and advocacy to ensure insurance companies recognize the medical necessity of these surgeries. Lipedema treatment is vital for so many, and we should continue to push for broader coverage so that more people can access the care they need.I encourage anyone considering treatment to seek out a specialist like Dr. Schwartz and to also advocate for insurance support to make this essential care accessible to all.

I received the Lipedema removal and manual extraction per Dr. Jaime Schwartz. I have had exceptional care pre and post surgery. During my visits, the office personnel were all delightful and kind and always took my concerns to heart. I would recommend TLC for those with unwanted disfiguring fat areas that cannot be dieted or exercised away! Many thanks to TLC.... Mary D. from Memphis, Tenn!
