Southwestern Ohio general surgeon, Dr. Richard Nedelman, has joined the Mary Rutan General Surgery team.
Bringing years of surgical experience to the existing team in Bellefontaine, Dr. Nedelman specializes in general dialysis access procedures, endocrine, and advanced laparoscopic procedures, including Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) and colon resections for benign and malignant disease.
A Springfield native and graduate of Springfield North High School, Dr. Nedelman received his B.S. degree in biology from The Ohio State University and continued his education at the University of Cincinnati, where he earned his M.D.
He completed his surgical residency at the University of Cincinnati and was awarded the Max Zinninger Award, which recognized his outstanding performance as a chief resident.
His successful medical career includes a history as an Assistant Clinical Professor of Surgery at Wright State University, Chief of Surgery and President of Medical Staff at Springfield Regional Medical Center, and an active member of multiple medical societies.
Mary Rutan General Surgery now has three board-certified general surgeons who provide surgical care to the community for elective and emergency surgical needs, often unavailable in rural communities. The expert surgical team provides comprehensive, state-of-the-art preoperative, intra-operative, and postoperative care.
Additionally, the surgeons utilize the latest cutting-edge high-definition 4K technology in performing minimally invasive surgeries that significantly reduce the amount of time spent in the hospital and promote quicker recovery.
“We are excited to welcome Dr. Nedelman to the Mary Rutan General Surgery team,” said Chad Ross, Mary Rutan Hospital president and CEO. “He joins our other talented general surgeons, Dr. Anthony Beisler and Dr. Vineeta Gahlawat, to complete our general surgery team.
“We know there is an increasing need for general surgeons in our area, and we are pleased to bring Dr. Nedelman to Mary Rutan Health to fill that need.”
Dr. Nedelman will see patients in the Mary Rutan Ambulatory Care Center, 2160 Ewing Crawfis Circle, Bellefontaine. He will perform surgical procedures in the surgical department at Mary Rutan Hospital.
