Practice Philosophy

My goal is to provide patients with an understanding of their diagnosis and treatment options so we can create a plan that gives them the best possible outcome in the most minimally invasive manner. I believe frequent communication – before and after surgery – is critical to achieving this.

Clinical Interests

General Surgery, minimally invasive and robotic surgery, trauma surgery, acute care surgery, hernias and abdominal wall reconstruction, care of chronic wounds, other common pathology including that of the appendix, gallbladder and skin and soft tissue.
