I am a bariatric and metabolic surgeon who is board certified by the American Board of Surgery.
I have a strong passion for treating and preventing the multitude of diseases related to obesity. My specialty in the surgical treatment of obesity allows me to provide my patients with a renewed and healthier life. I believe in individualized, quality care for each patient and develops a treatment plan based on their medical and surgical needs.
I am on multiple national committees as an active member of the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) and have presented research nationally.
I specialize in minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery including the Roux-en-y gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy and revisional bariatric surgery. I also specialize in advanced laparoscopic foregut surgery for the treatment of hiatal or paraesophageal hernias and achalasia, as well as for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) amongst others.
At St. Luke’s Weight Management Center, we offer a multi-disciplinary approach to the treatment of obesity and obesity-related metabolic diseases both medically and surgically through current, data-driven and proven strategies. We look forward to serving you and achieving a healthier you!

“Everybody at this office has been great. I have always felt judged and invalidated due to my weight at other offices, but this office feels so non judgmental and solely informative from a medical standpoint. I feel listened to as a patient which helps greatly in regards to building trust with the providers, but I also feel positively encouraged instead of criticized and that is something I've never had from other offices. I'm not scared of the scale here, and feel supported in my wanting to change my life and be healthier.”
