Overview
Whether assisting in the OR, rounding in the hospital or seeing patients in the office, for 19+ years I have been an integral part of our bariatric practice. I enjoy engaging our patients and watching their life transformations. The beauty of this practice is we keep in touch with our patients for life, so we truly develop “lifelong” relationships with our patients and their family. It’s rare to get that kind of experience at other practices.
