From the moment I arrived, Sharlyne at reception made me feel genuinely welcome. She took the time to listen, was incredibly attentive, and made sure I felt comfortable throughout my visit. Her warm and personal approach immediately put me at ease, and it was clear that she truly cares about the people who walk through the door. My consultation with Dr. Gallo was equally impressive. He was extremely attentive to my story, took the time to understand my situation, and answered all of my questions with honesty and clarity. He was thorough in explaining what to expect, reassuring without making unrealistic promises, and helped me feel much more hopeful about my journey with Lipoedema. I left feeling informed, supported, and with a much clearer understanding of my options. One aspect that stood out was the 3D body scan, which provided valuable insight into the condition. While I have not yet decided whether I will proceed with liposuction through Lipocura, I can honestly say that this consultation has been a significant and positive step in my journey. The professionalism, kindness, and genuine care shown by both Sharlyne and Dr. Gallo made a lasting impression on me and I will not forget that! 🙏🏻💛

I came in for a consultation because I suspected I might have lipedema given my leg shape and symptoms. After a thorough consultation, a 3D scan, an ultrasound, and a physical exam, the doctor confirmed that I definitely do not have it.
I assumed he would just send me on my way since there was no treatment needed, but he went above and beyond. He took the time to explain exactly what my ultrasound would have looked like if I did have it, answered all my questions, and gave me realistic advice on how to proceed with my concerns and didn’t rush me in any way. They also told me I could reach out to them anytime until they retire! 😅
I thought that was incredibly kind. I left feeling truly understood and reassured.
Also, a huge shoutout to Sharlyne, I think she is the practice manager… She is an absolute star! Trully! I was very anxious before arriving, but her warm energy and friendly chat completely distracted me and put me at ease. Overall, I walked in worried, but I left feeling so reassured and understood.

I recently had a consultation at this clinic and came away feeling very satisfied. After a previous disappointing experience at another clinic, I was a bit hesitant, but Dr. Gallo listened attentively and took plenty of time with me. For the first time, I felt truly understood regarding my lipedema, both physically and mentally. There was plenty of room for my questions and concerns. The doctor also provided clear explanations about nutrition and lifestyle, which I really appreciated because it felt like an approach that looked beyond just the symptoms. As a woman with lipedema, this means a great deal to me. I wholeheartedly recommend this clinic to women who want to feel truly heard and understood and who are looking for clear explanations and genuine care.

The consultation was very thorough and tailored to my situation. The doctor really took the time to look at everything, not just give standard advice. Highly recommended

I had an excellent experience at Lipocura Amsterdam. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and well taken care of by the entire team.
The doctor was exceptional professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring. They took the time to explain every detail of the procedure, answered all of my questions with patience, and made sure I felt comfortable and confident every step of the way. Their expertise and attention to detail gave me complete trust in the process.
Mar Ster
My wife and I went in for a consultation and decided to continue treatment here. We were warmly welcomed by Sharlene, who also performed the body scan. She was incredibly friendly, showed genuine interest, and immediately put my wife at ease. The consultation with Dr. Gabriele was very pleasant: she was knowledgeable, understanding, and attentive. It was wonderful to see how much relief this gave my wife, especially because she finally felt like she was being taken seriously.
