Alexander Parr, M.D., is board certified in general surgery and fellowship trained in minimally invasive surgery, including both bariatric and a variety of abdominal and gastrointestinal surgeries, including robotic surgery.
“I fell in love with surgery while I was in medical school doing clinical rotations, and I still love how surgery makes such an immediate change in people’s lives and well-being,” said Dr. Parr. “It’s very gratifying to see patient benefits so quickly.”
In his current practice at Broward Health Imperial Point, he feels his bariatric patients benefit from a multi-disciplinary approach at the hospital which includes interaction with a dietician, bariatric coordinator and psychiatrist.
Dr. Parr is bilingual, speaking both English and Spanish. He received his medical degree from Ponce Health Sciences University in Ponce, Puerto Rico and completed both a residency in general surgery and a fellowship in advanced GI, bariatric and minimally invasive surgery at the University of Florida in Gainesville.
