Just some of our surgical specialties include:
General surgery
Our surgeons treat all types of conditions affecting the esophagus, stomach, colon, liver, pancreas, gallbladder, appendix, and bile ducts. We use newer, minimally invasive techniques for common procedures like appendectomies and hernia repair, which mean less pain and a faster recovery.
Heart and vascular surgery
Our cardiovascular surgeons perform both traditional open heart surgery as well as some of the most advanced, minimally invasive options available. Treatments include implantable devices and ablation to help restore irregular heart rhythms; angioplasty and other interventional procedures in our state-of-the-art cardiac cath lab; and innovative heart valve repair and replacement.
Plastic and reconstructive surgery
We offer a wide range of elective procedures to help you look and feel your best. Cosmetic options include face lifts, breast augmentation, tummy tucks, liposuction and more from our board-certified plastic surgeons. Our reconstructive procedures can help restore appearance and self-confidence after an injury or illness, including breast reconstruction following mastectomy.
Gynecologic surgery
We perform a wide range of gynecologic procedures to address concerns at any age and stage of life. That includes treatment for endometriosis, removing fibroids and ovarian cysts, and minimally invasive hysterectomy. Many of these procedures can be done on an outpatient basis, allowing you to recover comfortably at home.
Cancer surgery
For many types of cancer, surgery is often the best first treatment, especially for early stage cancers or those that are contained to one area. Our surgeons are skilled in tumor removal while minimizing damage to healthy tissue. We also work closely with specialists in radiation and medical oncology to ensure the best possible care.
Neurosurgery
Our skilled neurosurgeons provide care for a full range of conditions affecting the brain, spine, and nervous system. We use some of the most advanced therapies available, including radiosurgery and deep brain stimulation, to help relieve or eliminate symptoms that can disrupt your life.
Gallbladder Surgery & Hernia surgery
We offer a wide range of comprehensive and minimally invasive procedures. Using the latest state-of-the-art techniques our surgeons and staff bring exceptional care to all patients. Laparoscopic, robotic, gallbladder, and hernia surgeries, basic to complex, our surgeons are experts in diagnosis and procedure. We treat the whole you with a complete team of caregivers.
