Jennifer L. Salluzzo, MD, FACS, FASMBS is a surgeon at VCU Health, Bariatric & GI Surgery specializing in minimally invasive surgical procedures, using small incisions, tiny cameras, and robots to treat diseases of the esophagus, stomach, gallbladder, and intestines.
She is also a weight-loss surgery specialist, helping those struggling with obesity. Dr. Salluzzo also leads VCU Health’s hernia program, a collaborative and multidisciplinary team of physicians from across the health system working together to treat basic to complex abdominal wall hernias.
Minimally invasive surgeries mean shorter hospital stays, less pain after the operation, and the ability to get patients back to work and life sooner. Many of Dr. Salluzzo’s patients are also living with additional, often complex conditions that require multidisciplinary treatment, “which is one of the benefits of coming to VCU Health,” she says. “Here, as a patient, you have access to specialty physicians constantly …striving to provide you the best possible care.”
From a young age, Dr. Jennifer Salluzzo was fascinated by the way science could be used to treat disease. That’s particularly true when it comes to conditions such as obesity, where controlling one’s metabolism – paired with the advanced technology behind today’s surgical weight-loss procedures – work together to radically change and improve a person’s quality of life.
