Summary

  • I am a general surgeon board certified in both general surgery and colon and rectal surgery. As a staff surgeon in a tertiary care center, I have taken care of many complicated patients. I started the pancreas transplant program at CCF in 1985, but I am no longer performing transplants. I have a vast experience in breast disease and hernia repair. My current practice is about 40% breast, 40% hernias, and 20% digestive disease (gallbladder, pancreas, intestinal surgery).
