I am a board certified general surgeon with a special interest in minimally invasive and bariatric surgery. I am a clinical practitioner applying laparoscopic techniques to the treatment of surgical problems such as hernia repair , esophageal reflux and obesity. I have written and lectured extensively on these problems for over 20 years.
I have been the director of bariatric surgery at Clovis hospital since its inception and am consulting with Marian Hospital in Santa Maria to establish a new bariatric center of excellence in the near future.
