Bariatric Surgeon | General Surgery | Cosmetic Procedures
In 2006, Dr. Cernero opened his practice in Denison, Texas with the goal of bringing the latest techniques in general surgery and bariatric surgery to Denison, Sherman, and surrounding Texoma and North Texas areas. It is Dr. Cernero’s privilege to do the work he loves, treating patients in his hometown and changing lives through his skill and expertise as a general and bariatric surgeon.
Dr. Cernero’s patients’ feelings and concerns are extremely important and he continues to base his practice on the belief that personal relationships and great care are essential to being successful. After opening Cernero Surgery & Aesthetics, Dr. Cernero decided to expand his services to include cosmetic procedures like SculpSure and BodyTite. These cosmetic procedures complement his other treatments by giving patients more confidence and motivation to continue a healthy lifestyle.
Dr. Cernero’s goal is to bring the latest technology in general and bariatric surgery as well as cosmetic procedures to the Texoma area. In addition to weight loss surgery, Dr. Cernero also performs advanced laparoscopic minimally invasive colon and abdominal wall hernia surgery. With extensive surgical experience at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, Dr. Cernero also has a special interest in breast, thyroid, and parathyroid surgery. Dr. Cernero is one of the few general surgeons that perform robotic surgery in the Denison area.
Improving techniques and minimally invasive surgeries allow Dr. Cernero’s patients to experience quicker recoveries and shorter hospital stays. While the decision to have surgery is not to be taken lightly, our goal is to provide you with information that can help when deciding if bariatric or minimally invasive surgery is the right choice for you.
