ABOUT ACCESS SURGICAL
Introduction
Dr. Ryan E. Chupp, MD FACS founded Access Surgical to combine the personalized, patient-centered care of a bygone era with the advanced surgical techniques and technologies of modern medicine. The aim is for patients feel connected and have direct access to their surgeon throughout their healthcare journey.
As a board certified general surgeon practicing minimally invasive surgery, Dr. Chupp treats most general surgery conditions, including hernias of all types, gallbladder disease, thyroid, small bowel, colon, and reflux disease. He also performs upper and lower endoscopies (EGDs/colonoscopies) for both diagnostic and screening purposes and manages soft tissue masses.
Coordinating complex breast and skin cancer care with a multidisciplinary team including radiologists, oncologists, pathologists, plastic & reconstructive surgeons, radiation oncologists, pharmacists, genetic counselors, PT/OT, and other team members remains a passion for Dr. Chupp. Such coordination is essential to providing seamless and comprehensive cancer care. As an early adopter of Stryker's SPY-PHI fluorescence, patients in need of lymph node biopsies will find world class care and outcomes.
As an experienced robotic surgeon, Dr. Chupp helps patients experience shorter recovery times, smaller incisions, and less post operative pain compared to traditional approaches. As a testament to his expertise, Dr. Chupp serves as a proctor for Intuitive - helping other surgeons learn robotic surgery on the da Vinci platform.
In addition, for those suffering from debilitating lower back/nerve pain, he works closely with orthopedic and neurosurgical colleagues to provide spinal access.
Whether you're a patient looking for an experienced general surgeon, or a referring provider seeking a trusted partner in healthcare, Access Surgical was founded for you.
