Dr. Twynham is dedicated to providing the highest degree of surgical care. Since she started providing surgical care in 1992, her philosophy has been, “The more you understand about your disease process, the better partners we can be in your health care.” She enjoys getting to know her patients as people, understanding their entire health history, and using that knowledge to evaluate the current illness.
Her special interests are the diagnosis and treatment of cancer, women's health (particularly breast and thyroid diseases), bariatric (weight loss) surgery, and minimally invasive surgery. Minimally invasive surgery includes operations done through very small incisions, which is called "laparoscopic" surgery in the abdomen, and "thoracoscopic" surgery in the chest. She also is committed to providing the most minimally invasive care in other parts of the body (like breast, thyroid, and blood vessels). At Caring Surgery we take the time to do our best to properly diagnose our patients and determine what treatment the situation truly requires. In the process, a relationship is made that enhances the "care" in "health care."
