General surgery is a surgical specialty that focuses on abdominal contents including the esophagus, stomach, small bowel, colon, liver, pancreas, gallbladder, appendix and bile ducts, and often the thyroid gland. A general surgeon performs a wide range of abdominal surgeries for many forms of intestinal and abdominal wall neoplasms, gallbladder disease, gastric and pancreatic disease. They follow the patient through critical care and surgical recovery all the way to outpatient care.
As a family of five, Dr. Hollenbeck lives locally in Petoskey with his wife Dana, a dentist, and their 3 children. He enjoys all Northern Michigan has to offer with his family including sailing, boating, water sports, downhill skiing, gardening, woodworking, and cooking in his spare time.
