Piedmont HealthCare General Surgery is pleased to welcome David Ellertson, MD, FACS, ABTS. He joins James C. Foxworthy, MD, FACS.
All of our general surgeons are experienced in all of the following areas:
- Gastrointestinal System
- Breast, Skin and Soft Tissue
- Endocrine System
- Pediatric Surgery
- Surgical Critical Care
- Surgical Oncology
- Trauma/Burns
- Emergency Surgery
- Vascular Surgery
Due to today’s high-tech instrumentation and advanced technology, procedures such as major abdominal surgery are now replaced with minimally invasive laparoscopic techniques that often reduce pain, accelerate recuperation, and reduce cost without sacrificing good outcomes. General surgeons provide life-saving procedures every day, such as appendectomy, splenectomy or curative cancer surgery.
