For Health Professionals

Health Practitioner Survey

In our continuing efforts to raise awareness, strengthen recognition and treatment of lipoedema in Australia, Lipoedema Australia is inviting GPs, specialists and health professionals to take part in this national survey.

This survey is completely anonymous. The information you share will be used to support advocacy, inform government and policymakers, strengthen engagement with the health system, guide future priorities, and improve awareness and understanding of lipoedema across the community.

By taking part, you are helping to drive change and shape a stronger future for everyone affected by lipoedema.
