Meet Our Team

While non-invasive treatment options are often the first avenue of intervention, there are times when surgery is necessary to successfully move the patient forward in the treatment process.

Hernia Repair

If you need a hernia repair, Norton King’s Daughters’ Health offers innovative solutions, including laparoscopic options that improve recovery time and reduce pain. If you have a hernia, or need to have a hernia evaluation, contact your primary care provider or call the General Surgery office. Let us take the hassle out of hernia repairs.

Skin Cancer / Skin Lesions

While many skin cancers are small in size, there is nothing small about their impact. When left undiagnosed and untreated, skin cancers can become disfiguring and even lethal – especially melanoma. The good news: when detected early (or as pre-cancerous lesions), most skins cancers can be cured and eliminated. If it has been a while since you had a skin cancer check-up, or if you notice anything new, call your provider or our General Surgery team. We can arrange for prompt evaluation and removal, if necessary.

Bariatrics / Weight Loss Surgery

The bariatric program at Norton King’s Daughters’ Health is designed to improve the overall health of anyone who could benefit from weight loss surgery. Unhealthy weight is a significant risk factor for many health conditions – including heart disease and diabetes. When appropriate, bariatric surgery can help patients begin a lifelong journey toward improved health. To learn more, visit our Bariatrics page or call Dr. David Schumacher at (812) 801-0840.

The surgery team at Norton King’s Daughters’ believes that each patient and each surgery is unique. Teamwork is very important. We want every patient to be directly involved in his or her care.
