Dr. Sam Yelverton | General Surgery
I grew up in…
…Jackson, Mississippi, completed my college at Mississippi College where I studied premedical sciences and met the love of my wife, Dr. Eden Yelverton. I then continued my training at the University of Mississippi Medical Center and married Eden.
We moved to Charlotte, North Carolina, to complete my surgical training and had our first child, Archer. We moved back to Mississippi where I practiced private practice for a few years. We had our second child, Dakota. Through a collection of experiences, I felt God calling our family to move, and we followed Him to Lakewood Ranch, Florida. He took me from a place of offering a service of medicine to practicing my faith through the skills he gave me in surgery.
Today, I serve the Lord through surgery and offer my patients care directed through faith. God has been so good to us, and we want to share that through all we do. I cannot wait to meet you, get to know you, and help you through whatever surgical problem you are having. When you become one of my patients, you become family.
The Beauty of Robotic Surgery
Robotic surgery is something I am beyond passionate about.
It offers advanced technology of 3D vision, precision instruments, decreased blood loss, quicker recovery, lowers your hospital stay, decreased pain, and the ability to do surgery that previously could not be done in a minimally invasive fashion.
With the DaVinci XI system that I use, you can rest assure your getting the best surgical care and cutting edge technology.
