I am a board-certified obesity medicine and adult & pediatric general surgeon, specializing in weight loss surgery. There is also a non-surgical weight management procedure available through our program - call 763-236-0940 for more information about this dual-balloon medical device.
I enjoy caring for the entire age spectrum. In addition to caring for adults, I work with kids, teens, young adults and their families.
