Palm Beach Surgical

What Palm Beach Surgical does

Palm Beach Surgical is a private general surgery practice headquartered in Delray Beach, Florida, operating within the Palm Beach Health Network Physician Group under Tenet Healthcare's Affiliated Covered Entity structure. The practice fields five board-certified, fellowship-trained surgeons offering minimally invasive procedures across five specialty service lines: bariatric/weight loss surgery (sleeve gastrectomy, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, Lap-Band management/removal, revision procedures), colorectal surgery, hernia repair, gallbladder surgery (including Mini-Lap Cholecystectomy), and endocrine surgery (thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal). Procedures are performed using the da Vinci Surgical System from Intuitive Surgical for robotic-assisted cases and laparoscopic instrumentation for conventional minimally invasive approaches, with inpatient procedures conducted at Delray Medical Center — a nationally accredited Center of Excellence in Bariatrics.

The practice operates additional office locations in Royal Palm Beach and Port St. Lucie, extending its geographic reach across South Florida's Palm Beach and Treasure Coast markets. Revenue is generated primarily through insurance-reimbursed surgical procedures with a complementary non-surgical Medical Weight Loss Program (consultations, weight loss medications, nutrition classes) for patients who do not qualify for or prefer to avoid surgery. Patient acquisition runs through a dual channel: physician-to-physician referrals coordinated by Practice Manager Valerie Haig, and direct patient engagement via online appointment requests, a patient portal, and social media. Founded approximately 2015 (per website copyright), the practice sits within Tenet Healthcare's broader Florida physician network and benefits from the parent system's hospital affiliations, payer contracting, and compliance infrastructure.
