Care Philosophy: General Surgeon Edward Eric Horvath, DO, FACS likes to use humor and stories to get to know his patients. He wants them to feel that when they come to see him he's not just a doctor. That way, on the day of their surgery, they're not fearful. He also likes to draw pictures and make sure his patients are confident that they know exactly what he's going to do, why he's going to do it, and that they're going to do great.
