The lymphedema community has been affected by the closing of the ProHealth Woodbury Lymphedema office. For these patients wishing to continue with their treatment or supervision by a qualified/certified lymphedema therapist and Board certified Physicians in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, we welcome you to visit our office. We are in the process of accepting new patients from this facility and welcome the opportunity to serve you. Please feel free to call our front desk to schedule your appointment and if possible have your medical records available at the time of your initial consult.
