“From the very first appointment, I felt informed, supported, and genuinely cared for throughout my UFE journey. In just a little over three months, my fibroids are completely dead and have shrunk by over 62%, which honestly still amazes me.”

– S.B.

“Thank you Dr. Lipman and all your staff. I’m so glad I got the UFE done. The procedure was so quick and painless. The recovery was what I was mostly nervous about but it was flawless to the point I was worried if the procedure worked. Looking at my post procedure images 4 months later I was amazed! Thank you Dr Lipman your staff was so great too!”

– M.G.

“A special thanks to Dr. Lipman & his staff for taking really great care of me. Dr. Lipman took the time to answer all my questions. The whole process went smoothly and I am happy to say that I am feeling 100% better after the UFE procedure. I am grateful to have come across UFE & Dr. Lipman as I was not a candidate for any other surgery due to really low iron & blood levels. I can’t thank Dr. Lipman and his team enough for what they do to help women who are suffering from fibroids.”

– C.F.

“I had UFE surgery with Dr. John Lipman at the Atlanta Fibroid Center in September, and I’m incredibly grateful for the experience and results. All of my fibroids are now nonviable, and I’ve seen a significant improvement in my symptoms. Dr. Lipman and his team were kind, professional, and attentive from start to finish. His calm, reassuring presence made a world of difference during a time that could have felt overwhelming.”

– C.B.

“Dr. Lipman is a magician. The procedure was quick and I saw IMMEDIATE results. I can enjoy my life again and I am beyond grateful. He and his staff are attentive, compassionate, and knowledgeable. I can’t put in to words how much I appreciate how they have changed my life.”

– E.A.
