With nearly 20 years of experience, Dr. Martens has received advanced training in general and vascular surgery, allowing him to perform a wide range of surgical procedures. As a general surgeon, he is also uniquely qualified to diagnose problems and recommend the most appropriate therapy for his patients, which may or may not include surgery. Instead, he may prescribe preventive steps to help patients maintain a healthy, active lifestyle without surgical intervention. If surgery is needed, Dr. Martens incorporates advanced techniques, such as endoscopy and laparascopy, to ensure patients are less apprehensive about their outcomes.
