Brief Intro

Dr. Favor is a well renowned Board Certified general surgeon who specializes in endoscopic procedures although his knowledge and expertise have a much broader range. He performs hiatal hernias, cholecystectomies (gallbladders) and Lap-Band adjustable horizontal gastric banding through a scope eliminating the large incisions usually associated with these procedures making recovery time much quicker and complications associated with more invasive procedures fewer. Dr. Favor has extensive experience in the laparoscopic removal of the gallbladder to the benefit of his patients and making him a highly referred to specialist. The newest laparoscopic procedure in Dr. Favors repertoire which has been found to be very successful with his patients is the Lap-Band adjustable horizontal gastric banding. In the field of general surgery, Dr. Favor has the knowledge and experience to perform varied multiple procedures making him an asset to the Grand Park Surgical Center Medical Staff.
