General surgeons historically have performed a wide range of surgical procedures. As a trend toward specialization gained steam in the mid 1990s, our Division of General Surgery was divided into subsections: Acute and Critical Care, Colon and Rectal, Endocrine and Oncologic, Hepatobiliary-Pancreatic and Gastrointestinal, Vascular, and Transplant — and in 2007, Minimally Invasive Surgery. Today, our surgeons contribute leading advances in all division subspecialties, and our residency is recognized as premier in its field.
