TissueCypher™ is a one-of-a-kind advanced test that helps predict the 5-year risk of disease progression in #Barrett's esophagus patients.
With early detection as the safest investment and awareness as his greatest return, Mark is ensuring more lives are protected in #Georgia and beyond.

The @IntuitiveSurg DV5 robot has joined @HCAhealthcare Sky Ridge Medical Center's surgical team, and the OR has never looked sharper. With moves smoother than our stainless steel OR walls, this robot takes precision to the next level, making surgeons feel like an actual "man-in-the-chair" superhero movie sidekick. Rumor has it the only complaint about DV5 is that you can't control the OR playlist.

The future of surgery is at HCA @SkyRidgeMed Center, where innovation meets excellence.

Mahalo to Thoracic Surgeon Wilson Tsai, MD, aka “Duke,” for an epic presentation on PHOTOFRIN® directed Photodynamic Therapy in Hawaii! 🌺
Watching your PDT treatment videos was like seeing a Jedi wield a lightsaber in the battle against esophageal cancer. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and bringing a touch of Star Wars magic to the fight.
May the (Healing) Force always be with you—but next time, ditch the @BrooksBrothers suit and don a nice @ToriRichardLtd Aloha Shirt with some @OluKais Sandals. Let’s embrace those island vibes! 😎

Finishing up a week at The Foregut Disease Foundation’s annual course. It is an extremely in depth foregut disease conference with international experts in GI, Surgery, and Pathology in attendance. #Hawaii is a long trip but the deep content dives are worth it.

Attending 40th Annual Foregut Disease Foundation meeting atthe North Shore of Oahu, HI, where waves are as relentless as GERD symptoms after a spicy luau feast. Here’s to mastering reflux surgery while dodging wipeouts—both in the surf & the OR. #hawaiicourse #foregutfoundation

Does #heartburn have you living in the twilight zone?
Medications are a temporary fix, like a #SolarEclipse for your stomach. But if they're not covering it anymore, surgery stops the burn by permanently blocking acid reflux.
