Learn more at https://uvahealth.com/findadoctor/profile/michael-d-williams I'm doctor Michael Williams, one of the general surgeons here. I do acute care surgery, which means a combination of emergency general surgery, trauma surgery and critical care of the ICU patient on the surgical side of things. When I finished my training as a general surgeon in New Orleans at Louisiana State University, I knew that I wanted to take care of my patient wherever they were in the hospital, including the ICU. Right about then, the idea of intensive care fellowship was really gaining steam, so I applied for it. I ended up getting a fellowship in surgical, critical care, and right about that time, that became synonymous with trauma. What I think the elective patient that comes to see us can expect is the compassion in that we will meet them where they are with our practice. They’ll see a nurse’s aid, they'll see an RN, they'll see an NP, they'll see an MD, they'll see medical students, and they'll see residents. Ultimately, they’ll see team-based care. One of the reasons I say I've remained as broad in my practice and not gone down a very narrow specialty branch is that I want to be available to help a wide variety of people across a range of circumstances and finding ways, particularly cost-effective ways, to support populations of patients with my technical and clinical skills. It's one of those things that keeps me getting out of bed at night, on weekends and holidays. g4ziYf1sopc |
