Open Surgery

When it is the safest, most effective choice, traditional open surgery gives Dr. Talbert full, direct access to treat complex or urgent problems with precision.

About The Procedure

The right approach when it matters most

Not every problem is best treated with a minimally invasive approach. Open surgery, through a traditional incision, gives the surgeon complete, direct access, which can be safer and more effective for complex, scarred, or urgent cases.

Dr. Talbert is experienced in both laparoscopic and open techniques, including complex and emergency operations from his years as a trauma surgeon. He recommends open surgery when it offers the strongest, most durable result for your situation.

He takes the time to explain why open surgery is the right choice, what it involves, and what your recovery will look like, so you and your family know exactly what to expect.
