“Many of our patients suffer from lower extremity chronic swelling. They don’t know about all the available options, so when they get a compression pump, and a company like BioTAB Healthcare, they are shocked they didn’t pursue it at an earlier time. BioTAB’s pneumatic compression pumps can literally be life-changing. There’s a lot of satisfaction in helping a patient with a chronic condition suddenly find a way to fix it and have a huge effect in their lives.”
Omar Mubarak, MD, Vascular Medicine, Vascular Institute of the Rockies
Chronic lymphedema is a common but under-recognized condition and imposes a significant burden to our patients individually and to our healthcare system as a whole. Lymphedema pump therapy improves quality of life for many patients and reduces the cost of care to our healthcare system by reducing admissions for cellulitis and speeding wound healing. BioTAB has set itself apart from other lymphedema companies by providing a high level of personalized service to both patients and to providers. At follow-up, many of my patients report being very pleased with significant improvement in leg symptoms using their pumps. The company has been highly responsive in follow-up with regard to fine tuning any issues. BioTAB makes the insurance authorization process streamlined and easy with minimal paperwork required on the part of the provider.
Michael Shao, MD, RPVI, Vascular Surgery, Swedish Covenant Health

“Not only do I recommend the pump to patients, but I also use it after a long day of work. If it makes me feel this good after a long day in my field, and the work that I do, then I know it’s beneficial for my patients suffering from a lymphatic or venous disorder.”
Kellie Hetherington, DPM, Foot & Ankle Surgery, Lubbock VA Medical Center
“I believe that compression pumps play an important role in the treatment of lymphedema and CVI. It can be especially important for elderly patients who have significant problems with putting on compression garments and/or bandaging. Pneumatic compression pumps are valuable tools in maintenance therapy of lymphedema and CVI.”
Andrzej Szuba MD, PhD, Stanford Lymphedema Center, Stanford University.

“As a physical therapist with a certification in lymphedema therapy, I treat a variety of patients with swelling that can be complicated by other secondary factors such as morbid obesity, cancer treatment, wounds, venous edema, diabetes and other chronic medical conditions. BioTAB has played an integral role in a vast majority of our caseload here in the outpatient setting, and has been nothing short of amazing with their two-way communication, feedback, timeliness for appointments, and ability to build a rapport with the patients. The quality of the product is also second to none, and we in the outpatient setting can’t wait for the continuous advancements in their technology.

Patient Testimonials
“If it weren’t for BioTAB and the pump, I wouldn’t be able to get down and crawl with my 7-month-old son. I work 16 hour days, and it allows me the time to come home, turn on the pump and get treatment while spending time at home with my family.”
E. Hessler Brush, Colorado
“I have tried several different pumps in the past and did not get the same results as I did with BioTAB’s lymphedema pump. It’s effective and easy to use.”
K. Ellingson Loveland, Colorado
“The pump I had previously was too difficult and time consuming to use. Fastening all of its Velcro straps made it a 2-person job. My new pump from BioTAB is so easy to use, I can do it by myself and the garments material stay much cleaner. Now I am not worried whether I am setting up everything correctly and can relax and enjoy therapy.”
M. Auten Scottsdale, Arizona
“I use my pump from BioTAB every day because it has helped my legs a lot and feels great. My legs are now, after using the pump for 2 months, back to the size they normally are, and I have not been back in to the hospital for cellulitis since. I highly recommend BioTAB.“
D. Funkauser Council Bluffs, IA
“I am very glad that the VA Hospital ordered me a pump from BioTAB. I tried a pump from another company, but the garments multiple Velcro straps required me having help. With BioTAB’s garments, I slide them on and press start on the pump. It’s really easy and it works.”
C. Blank Sioux Falls, SD
“I have a history of severe swelling in my feet and sensitive ulcers that are difficult to heal. I refused to use pumps in the past because it was too painful. But with BioTAB’s pump, they were able to make me feel comfortable. The BioTAB specialist came to my house, set up my equipment, and customized treatment by reducing pressure by my ulcers. Quality product and excellent customer service!”
O. Sell Mitchell, SD
“I had trouble with swelling in my legs for years. The VA first prescribed a pump from another company, but I couldn’t use it because the garments Velcro straps were too hard to put on. I have trouble bending over and get shortness of breath, so they ordered me a new pump from BioTAB. This one has no Velcro straps and is easy to use. Within a couple weeks, I was able to wear my shoes that I haven’t been able to in years.”
T. McCauley St. Peters, MO
“I am currently using the pump with the BioPants sleeve. I am beyond happy with the quality and ease of use. It has been very beneficial in helping to reduce the fluid in my legs and abdomen. BioTAB service was also top notch – a representative visited my home to set up my equipment and teach me how to use it. Thank you BioTAB!”
