My interests include the surgical treatment of diseases of the colon, rectum and anus, including colorectal cancer, inflammatory bowel diseases, and benign disorders. I have a specific interest in treating tumors of the appendix and peritoneal surface disease (carcinomatosis) arising from cancers of the appendix and large intestine. Select patients with these conditions may be treated with cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). I’m also concerned with optimizing patient safety and improving the design of our medical system through the application of procedural checklists and redundant systems.
