General Surgery
Martin Lo Sasso

“I had always viewed St. Luke’s as a strong surgical residency program and when I joined the residency in 2020 as part of a merger with Easton hospital, I saw firsthand that this was a program beyond my expectations. The faculty truly care about their patients and about their residents. Education is mixed with vast array of clinical volume and complexity, and the commitment to developing residents into future surgical leaders is evident from day one. This is truly the type of environment that helps shape individuals into the surgeons They wish to become, and also helps them be sure of their own direction if they start their training with an open mind. I am grateful every day for my time at St. Luke’s, the relationships that I built with my faculty and co-residents, and the unwavering support of my residency family in launching my surgical career.”
