I would recommend AVOIDING this surgeon! I went to this surgeon because I suspected that I had a hernia of the stomach (ventral hernia). Dr. Atcheson performed a "visual" exam only and recommended robotic arthroscopic surgery and surgery was scheduled and performed less than one week later. Dr. Atcheson never reviewed 2 previous recent CT scans of my stomach even though he had access to the hospital provided scans nor did he order or perform his own scan before performing the surgery to repair the ventral hernia. However, once he started the surgery, he discovered that there was no ventral hernia and he concluded the surgery. He has "no idea" what the lump in my stomach is caused by. In my opinion, this is the most most outrageous example of incompetence and unprofessionalism by a surgeon in my experience.
