Craig G Chang, MD, FACS

Disclosure: Dr. Chang is or has been a professional client of Fortris Corporation, the parent company of this website.

In the past, Dr. Chang primarily performed weight loss surgery, also known as bariatric surgery, because these were challenging operations. Although the operations are still challenging for him today, his motivation has changed. Experience has taught him that his patients need physical, mental, and spiritual health to be completely healthy. This is his primary motivation today.

Dr. Chang loves to learn and is still a student…he is constantly learning about his patients, surgery, and life in general. For him to effectively care for you, he will have to study and learn about you — What motivates you? What fears do you have? How can he better encourage you? This translates to greater success.

Although his job is very important, it is much less important than being a good servant of God, good husband, and good father. These are Dr. Chang's priorities. Other things that make him unique are the fact that he is a bee-keeper, runner, armadillo hunter, and long-range shooter (in which he does not claim any level of expertise in these other areas!).
