General surgeon Dr. Daniel Burgess specializes in acute-care surgery, advanced wound care, and vascular access. Integrative cardiologist Dr. Melody Hermel combines traditional and alternative approaches to treat heart disease. And new to the list is board-certified general and colorectal surgeon Dr. Laura DeCesare.
