Soft Tissue Surgery


Soft Tissue Surgery

Soft tissue surgery includes many surgical treatments for illnesses or injuries, including foreign body removal, tumor and mass removal, hernia repair and biopsies. We repair traumatic wounds (from dog fights to animals hit by car) as well as oncologic surgery (including mass removals and amputations).
