The Department of Surgery’s goal is to function as a comprehensive
academic facility and to develop leaders in the field of surgery.
Our three objectives are: state of the art clinical care for our
patients, an optimal academic surgical environment for our residents
and staff, and to pioneer research activities.
The department is comprised of the following divisions: General
Surgery, Vascular Surgery, Cardiac Surgery, ENT, and Hyperbaric.
Many of our faculty members are regionally and nationally recognized
with leadership positions in national and international surgical
societies.
