Overview

The majority of my practice focuses on abdominal wall surgery and the repair of ventral, incisional, and inguinal (groin) hernias. I chose to specialize in minimally invasive surgery because I saw the incredible benefits that these procedures provide for patients. By performing complex surgeries using either laparoscopic or robotic instruments, I am able to get patients back to their normal daily activities much faster and with significantly less pain. Whether I am repairing a hernia, performing surgery for weight loss, or helping to treat reflux, I will always try to offer a minimally invasive approach first and foremost. When I get the chance to meet you in the clinic we will discuss all of the possible treatment options for your condition and we will work as a team to pick which is the best choice for you. I feel incredibly fortunate to practice at Duke Health where we have incredible resources to take care of you no matter what problem you may have. I look forward to working with you and caring for you and your family.

I have the best job in the world and I love my work. The greatest thing about general surgery is the range of issues that we deal with, everything from lumps and bumps to pancreatic cancer. No two days are the same, but all are exciting. The addition of robotic skills to my armamentarium has opened up numerous possibilities for making complex procedures much less invasive. Dr. Watters is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in the treatment of Hernia. His top areas of expertise are Hernia, Familial Colorectal Cancer, Gallbladder Disease, Pancreatectomy, and Hernia Surgery.
