“I waited until completing all surgeries to review: I was diagnosed w/ Lipedema, Dercums Disease, and Familial Mtiple Lipomatosis. Because of the way my diseases present, it was not obvious that I was anything other than fat- distribution was very symmetrical and my lipomas were non-encapsulated- and deep. Dr V was the only person who said he would try to help me, at my consultation in early 2024. Prior to that, I had traveled all over the country looking for answers and help- had dozens of imaging studies that all said there was nothing there, including at the mayo clinic. I saw Dr Herbst TWICE in Arizona because the first time I went, she didn't look very closely at me before dismissing me. It took over 2 years fighting with insurance, and i never did get that SCA and ended up paying out of pocket for surgeons fee because I was running out of time on my insurance policy. My life circumstances had changed and I now had only until December 2026 to complete- I lose my insurance coverage at the end of December. I had no choice- otherwise I would have waited years for nothing and would have had to pay out of pocket for everything. These surgeries have given me back everything I lost thats important to me, including my singing voice. There were nodules in/on my throat compressing vocal chords and/or other structures. 2 weeks after having surgery under my chin singing in the shower, my high notes had returned after 15 years. I SOBBED with joy. I have also suffered with debilitating pain in my lumbar spine for the past 10 years. My sciatic nerve would become entrapped, and I suffered permenant nerve damage in my left foot and leg- I feared I would eventually be paralyzed. Surgery #3 was my back and posterior legs, shoulder to ankles. I indicated where I believed there were lipomas causing me pain, but they were difficult to palpatate. There were nearly FIFTY subcutaneous and intramuscular tumors near my sciatic nerve in my lower back/hips/butt, In the days after surgery, it hit me that the pain was GONE. For the first time in a decade, I was not being awoken each morning by the excruciating pain in my lower spine. Additionally, he removed some other deep infiltrating/intramuscular lipomas in my arms and neck and shoulders....ALL of the places where I hurt. Because of this, I am going to be able to begin tapering off the high dose opioid pain medications that I have needed to make existence bearable for the past 6 years. Other things to note: Even with insurance, it cost me a ton of money, because I was unwilling to leave some areas untreated because insurance wont cover. I also added VASER to facilitate a smooth recovery without complications each time in order to make the timeline. If there is any portion of the surgery that is considered cosmetic (any area not covered by insurance is classified this way) you will be responsible for paying anesthesia and facility fees up front for the estimated time it will take to treat those areas. I live out of state, and have no living family, so the travel expenses were also pretty steep for me. He has you stay one night in the hospital, which is 100% necessary. And finally: I was told by some of the nurses caring for me in the hospital after surgery #2 that Dr V actually had them observing some of these procedures- and I can say with absolute certainty that it positively affected the quality of care I received. Dr V's commitment to educating people about the various presentations and complications of these rare adipose tissue disorders is ongoing and unwavering- and it is having a measurable effect on how we are and will be treated and cared for. The reason I initially chose him was because of all the surgeons and specialists I spoke with, he was the only one who was willing to consider that he did not already know everything about these diseases and the way the present in individual cases. I'm going to have a chance at a decent life now. There are no words to express how grateful I am that I chose him and his team to treat me. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.”
“Dr. Volshteyn is an outstanding doctor - highly professional, knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely caring. He takes the time to listen, explains everything clearly, and makes you feel comfortable and well cared for. His professionalism and dedication to his patients truly stand out. Highly recommend!”
“I recently had my first consultation at Atlantic Surgical Associates with Dr Boris Volshteyn. The staff was extremely welcoming and Dr Volshteyn was kind, thorough and very open to questions and concerns. I felt informed and left there with quite a bit of helpful information, clear directives for my next steps and a sense that they would be supporting me throughout my healing journey. Thank you to everyone for such a positive experience!”
“I waited about four months for a Lipedema consultation appointment. It was well worth the wait. Dr Volshteyn was so knowledgeable and his staff was kind and helpful. They have submitted for my insurance approval and I would not do surgery with anyone else. They are the best.”
“From the moment I had my first consultation with Dr. Boris Volshteyn, I knew I was in the right hands. He is incredibly knowledgeable, highly skilled, and has an outstanding bedside manner. He took the time to answer all of my questions, explain the process thoroughly, and ease my mind every step of the way. I always felt heard, supported, and confident in my decision to trust him with my care. His entire office staff has been wonderful, and I especially want to recognize Katy. She has been absolutely incredible—always quick to respond, kind, patient, and so helpful in navigating the insurance process. Having someone so organized and compassionate made a stressful process so much easier. I am now almost six weeks post-op from my first surgery and am already so happy with my experience. I can’t wait for surgery #2 and to see even more progress and results. I am truly grateful to Dr. Volshteyn and his entire team for the exceptional care they have provided. I highly recommend them to anyone considering lipedema surgery.”
