Miss Julie Cunneen | Parkway Hospital

I have been a lymphoedema nurse specialist for 18 years. I was one of the first nurses to establish a lymphoedema service in an Acute Trust Hospital (QEH). I have a background in Oncology both medical and surgical; tissue viability and have a special interest in Lipoedema and its surgical management and lymph node transfer and its management.

Treatment includes assessment, limb volume measurements; measurement for compression hosiery; skin care and exercise advise; medical lymphatic drainage; Kinesiotaping and myofascial release.

I have good working relationships with several eminent oncologists. I support the plastic surgeon Miss Dancey in Birmingham with the pre and post operative management of her Lipoedema and Lymph Node Transfer patients.
