Welcome to the Department of Surgery at the University
of Cincinnati. We are delighted to have you visit our website to learn
more about us. We are focused on our commitment to provide the best
possible specialist surgical care to Cincinnati and the Midwest, to
train the next generation of Cincinnati surgeons and to shape
the surgical practice of tomorrow through innovative biomedical research.
We have successfully expanded our faculty to enhance
our clinical, research and educational capabilities in the areas of
cardio-thoracic
surgery, vascular surgery, pediatric surgery, plastic and reconstructive
surgery, trauma/critical care surgery, epithelial pathobiology,
sepsis and inflammation, and vascular biology. The combination of
our new
talent and our existing faculty has enabled us to introduce innovative
programs in cardiac surgery, islet cell transplantation, lung cancer
screening, morbid obesity surgery, and minimally invasive surgery
for the liver, kidney, and prostate.
In addition, we are committed
to increasing diversity in medicine and to serving the community
as a resource for specialized surgical
care and information. This is evidenced by our efforts to increase
awareness of opportunities in academic medicine and to meet the
needs of area physicians and patients. Our faculty support area
physicians
with continuing surgical education classes, invitations to observe
and be exposed to new techniques, consult on complex cases and
serve as the referral point for treating patients with challenging
needs.
Again, thank you for taking the time to visit our website. If
you have any questions or need any additional information, please
feel
free to contact me or any member of our faculty.
Jeffrey B. Matthews,
M.D.
