Dr. Brian K. Sparkman
Overview
I joined the surgery practice at Methodist Hospital in the late summer of 2024. My practice mainly focuses on cancer surgery, but I also practice in general surgery. I enjoy the variety of problem solving that my career provides. My overall approach to surgery is to communicate clearly with my patients about their condition. That way we can all start from the same base as we address the diagnosis and its treatment.
