Arizona Preferred Surgeons primarily focuses on surgery rather than medical treatment. Because of this, the surgeons have developed sophisticated skills in all forms of gastrointestinal surgery, from appendectomy and gallbladder surgery to hernia surgery and liver and pancreas resections. The practice also employs experts in breast and thyroid surgery.

The Arizona Preferred Surgeons team excels in performing procedures that help patients with bowel conditions like Crohn’s and ulcerative colitis, diverticulitis, and fecal incontinence. They also repair fistulas and fissures in the large bowel and rectum and perform surgery for rectal and colon cancers and rectal prolapse.

Whichever team member performs a patient’s surgery will handle their consultation before the surgery and appointments after surgery. They believe it’s important that patients know their surgeon follows them through every stage of the experience. They believe in spending the time needed to address all aspects of patient care, from diagnosis and testing to surgery and recovery.

All surgeons are diplomates of the American Board of Surgery. The colon and rectal surgeons are diplomates of the American Board of Colon and Rectal Surgery. Team members also belong to the American College of Surgeons and the American Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeons.
