SURGICAL CARE
Taking time to listen.
Staying involved.
I am a board-certified general surgeon and Fellow of the American College of Surgeons. My clinical work includes general and acute-care surgery at Adventist Health Tulare, minimally invasive surgery, and peritoneal dialysis catheter access.
My approach centers on understanding the person, explaining the options, and coordinating care when more than one specialty is needed.
