A general surgeon performs a wide range of abdominal surgeries for many forms of intestinal and abdominal wall neoplasms, gallbladder disease, gastric and pancreatic disease. They follow the patient through critical care and surgical recovery all the way to outpatient care.
Vein specialists are physicians who are trained to treat conditions affecting the veins, including varicose veins and spider veins. These doctors know how to recognize the signs of vein disease, diagnose patients accurately, and recommend the best course of treatment.
Among his numerous accolades, Dr. Rubano is the recipient of Compassionate Doctor Recognition (2014, 2015, 2016, 2017), On-Time Doctor Award (2014, 2015), Patients’ Choice Award (2014, 2015, 2016, 2017), the David B.
