About me
I provide minimally invasive hernia, reflux, and bariatric surgery options to patients. My goal is to reduce my patients' pain and help them return to their normal activities and work as soon as possible. Having surgery is a big decision and can be scary for many people. I let my patients know that I am here to be their partner and advocate in achieving their health goals. I encourage them to ask questions and take an active role in decision-making so that they feel comfortable and confident moving forward with surgery.
