Our Approach

Our patient's safety is our top priority. Patients who undergo surgery at Providence hospitals and clinics can rest assured, knowing that their surgeons have access to leading-edge technology and equipment. By using advanced techniques, surgeons can make safe, effective treatment plans.

Our surgeons have completed extensive training and are equipped to diagnose and treat a broad spectrum of diseases that require surgical care in adults and children.

Common surgeries performed include:

• Tumor removal
• Hernia repair
• Breast surgery
• Exploratory surgery
• Gastrointestinal surgery (of the digestive tract including stomach, intestines and appendix)
• Removal or repair of abdominal organs (such as the liver, pancreas, gallbladder and stomach)
• Skin surgery
• Colon, rectum and anus surgery, often performed by a surgeon with additional training

Your surgeon will coordinate with your primary care provider to deliver the best care possible. They also work closely with anesthesiologists who administer the appropriate sedation in a hospital or outpatient setting.
