Our surgeons were chosen to be a part of the American Institute for Hyperhidrosis because of their tremendous experience in laparoscopic and endoscopic surgical procedures. During their extensive practice, they have lectured and instructed other surgeons throughout the world in the advanced techniques of laparoscopy and endoscopy. Their wide experience provides them with the qualifications needed to perform ETS-C surgery at its highest level.
