General Surgery Appointments and Referrals

I believe that a Surgeon's role is to help a patient understand the nature of their problem and then to advise them on the treatment options. Ultimately, the patient gets to make their own decision on how they want to proceed with their care. The idea of having surgery can be very stressful. I hope we can alleviate some of that stress and get you back on the road to health.
