Frederic Eckhauser, M.D. is Professor of Surgery and Director of Clinical Operations for the Department of Surgery. He completed his surgical training at Johns Hopkins Hospital in 1976 and returned in 2001 to join the staff after serving on the surgical faculty at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, MI for 25 years. Dr. Eckhauser's clinical interests include benign and malignant hepatobiliary and pancreatic diseases, gastrointestinal motility disturbances, and complex reoperative gastrointestinal surgery. He is a dedicated teacher and works on a regular basis with medical students, PA students and surgery residents. He is also interested in clinical bioethics and participates on the JHH Medical Ethics Committee. One of his future goals is to work with other interested JHH faculty to develop a generic clinical bioethics curriculum that can be used internally by all clinical departments and can be exported for use in other academic medical centers. |
