Areas of Specialty

General Surgery

General surgery is a surgical specialty that focuses on abdominal contents including the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, liver, pancreas, gallbladder, appendix and bile ducts, and often the thyroid gland. General surgeons treat diseases of the abdomen, breast, head and neck, blood vessels, and digestive tract. We offer telehealth surgical consultation.

Vein Procedures

With the latest technology and procedures for vein care, which includes VenaSeal, we are able to improve leg issues and concerns (i.e., tired, fatigue, and various pains), and remove unsightly leg blemishes caused by dilated veins.

Wound Care

Wound care involves all stages of wound management, including diagnosing wound type, considering factors that affect wound healing, and the proper treatments for wound management.

Comprehensive Breast Care

Comprehensive breast care focuses on total breast health, including diagnosis to surgical treatment with a multidisciplinary approach for all breast conditions, from breast lumps to breast cancer to fibrocystic breast changes and beyond.

Gastrointestinal Endoscopy ("GI Endo")

Gastrointestinal endoscopy, also known as GI Endo, Upper or Lower scopes, allows a provider to see the inside lining of a patient's digestive tract using an endoscope-a flexible fiber-optic tube with a tiny TV camera at the end. The camera is connected to either an eyepiece for direct viewing or a video screen that displays the images on a color TV. The endoscope not only allows diagnosis of gastrointestinal (GI) disease but treatment as well.
