Overview
Why Did You Become a Medical Provider? Curiosity in the wonder of life, together with my growing faith, I suspected I would be either priest or physician, then understood (what I still believe now) these were both the same.Personal Interests and Hobbies: My family, my faith, my current work in a masters of Divity program, biking (electric), robotics and STAR WARS!A native of the Northeast, I was the youngest of an immigrant family focused on thriving in a dense multicultural neighborhood. My father, coming from a small town in Greece, was first amongst many who instilled the importance of working towards defining oneself through excellence. Family & life experiences tempered this integrity with empathy and stewardship, as I sought to do all I could to live life by exampleIn half century since, I spent much of my career engaged in teaching, including residents and fellows, as a board-certified General and Colon & Rectal Surgeon. In doing so, one of many goals has been to impart how to achieve the greatest benefit with least harm (utilizing minimal access and robotic interventions) in treating benign (including IBD, diverticulitis, etc.) and malignant conditions of the colon and rectum.Having practiced throughout our great country, I have confidently arrived in Redding with my wife and five young children eager to grow as a family and build upon past as I offer the wonderful people of the region, through collaboration with an impressive medical community, the excellence of care that has been hallmark not only of my career but Dignity Health as well.My goal is to complement faith with skill, dignity with expertise, stewardship with hope, as I continue to grow as a better surgeon.
