The surgeons in the Division of Minimally Invasive Surgery offer the most cutting-edge technology available in the realm of minimally invasive and robotic surgery while maintaining the highest quality of care. We work hard to provide the latest in endoscopic, laparoscopic, and robotic techniques in bariatric and foregut surgery.
Our division faculty and fellows attended and participated in the Society of American Gastrointestinal and Endoscopic Surgeons (SAGES) 2024 Annual Meeting in Cleveland, Ohio. Pictured to the right is our MIS research fellow, Graham Spurzem, M.D., presenting an abstract.
We are pleased to share that Ryan Broderick, M.D., an associate professor in the division, and Santiago Horgan, M.D., former chief of the division, mentored a visiting clinical fellow from Saudi Arabia, Dr. Khaled Alrakbi, from May 2023 to May 2024. This year-long mentorship is a testament to our commitment to global medical education, professional development, and the advancement of surgical training.
