Piedmont Physicians Surgical Specialists of Columbus specializes in the comprehensive care of patients undergoing elective or routine surgery, as well as those with emergency surgical conditions. We evaluate patients prior to surgery in outpatient locations, the emergency department or the hospital, depending on the urgency of their condition. We perform general surgical procedures using either minimally invasive techniques when appropriate or more traditional open surgical techniques if required. We have fellowship-trained surgeons with emphasis on stroke, carotid artery disease, aneurysmal disease and peripheral vascular disease. We also treat mesenteric and renal artery disease.
