Our faculty are national and institutional surgical leaders who are highly respected for their clinical expertise and research contributions. We are fellowship-trained specialists in the areas of surgical oncology, breast surgery and endocrine surgery. 

Our faculty are members of national research organizations and strategically develop innovative research in their respective fields. We also initiate clinical trials based on the needs of the diverse population in Southern California.
