General Surgery Specialist


I believe in achieving uncompromising excellence while maintaining a human touch.
Transparency, openness, and trust between the doctor, patient, and their family form the foundation for shared decision-making and the best possible outcomes.
The first step is to make an accurate diagnosis, based on the patient’s medical history, a physical examination, and the appropriate lab tests and imaging.
Next, we will discuss all treatment options—both non-surgical and surgical—and select the most suitable approach for the current situation. Together, we’ll review expected outcomes and any potential challenges.
In the operating room, I focus on performing the optimal procedure—minimizing harm to healthy tissues and providing the best anatomical solution to achieve the highest likelihood of optimal function with minimal complications.
I am committed to providing personal support from the day of surgery through recovery, ensuring a smooth return to full function.
