About James McGinty, MD

Dr. McGinty is chief of surgery and surgical services at Englewood Hospital. After receiving his MD from Drexel University School of Medicine, he did a surgical residency at Allegheny General Hospital and an advanced laparoscopic surgical fellowship at the Minimal Access Surgical Center at NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia University Medical Center.

He specializes in laparoscopic bariatric surgery, performing the full array of weight-loss procedures, including revisional and gastric bypass surgeries. He also performs advanced laparoscopic general surgery, including foregut procedures. Dr. McGinty is a member of the board of directors of the Association of Program Directors in Surgery. He is the author and co-author of numerous articles that have appeared in peer-reviewed publications, and he has contributed chapters to several books. He has lectured extensively on weight-loss and minimally invasive surgery, both nationally and internationally.

My patients are the most important component of our health care team. I take time to listen to their problems and expectations, formulate a plan with them, and educate them about how that plan will affect them and their families. As a surgeon, it is a great privilege to have a patient place their trust in you. To the best of my ability, I approach a patient's care with expert knowledge, humility and integrity.
