About Dr. Fisher MD,FACS
Dr. Fisher is a native of Houston, having completed his residency at the Baylor College of Medicine, and has been practicing in the area for over 15 years.
He specializes in general surgery and performs advanced laparoscopic procedures to reduce pain and recovery time.
Laparoscopic surgery generally refers to a minimally invasive surgical technique where surgeons perform surgery through several small incisions using a camera to view the procedure on a TV monitor.
Because of advances in surgical instrumentation and imaging devices, the incisions are considerably smaller than with traditional or open surgical techniques. Many surgeries that were once performed as open surgeries can now be performed using minimally invasive laparoscopic procedures.
