About
As an experienced and trained General and Trauma Surgeon, my patient’s care and treatment is my number one priority. Whether our first introduction is with my staff in my private practice or in the hospital setting, you will be taken care of with compassion and expertise. Our goal is to provide you with all the necessary and available options to ensure you comfort and a very successful surgical outcome.
I guarantee my patients to receive top notch care and the best surgical practices I can deliver. My technical expertise in minimally invasive and robotic surgery provides the most comprehensive care in all forms of surgery performed. With over 17 years of patient care, I have operated many levels of cases from endoscopies (EGD's and colonoscopies) to level 1 traumas.
My comprehensive training in laparoscopic and robotics has given me the advanced skills to make repairs with the most minimal surgical incisions possible for my patients.
