General Surgery Appointments and Referrals

When I first meet with a patient, my goal is to help them completely understand their medical condition and all the available treatment options. I aim to explain things in straightforward terms, so that patients feel informed and empowered to ask questions that are important to them. We then work together to develop a treatment plan that is tailored to each patient’s unique condition, needs, and goals. Treatments often include a combination of dietary and lifestyle changes, medications, and/or surgery. If surgery is required, I strive to offer the least invasive and most effective procedure available, so that patients can recover and return to normal life as quickly as possible. Staying up-to-date on the latest advances in surgery and being involved in clinical research is very important to me, so that I can provide the best care possible and work to improve the field of surgery for the benefit of all patients.
