Charles J. Dolce, MD
Originally from Buffalo, New York, Charles J. Dolce attended the University of Rochester for his undergraduate education and subsequently attended St. George’s University School of Medicine where he earned his MD in 2002. He completed his General Surgery Residency at Albany Medical Center in Albany, New York where he was elected into the ALPHA OMEGA ALPHA medical honor’s society. He received additional fellowship training at Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte, North Carolina in Minimally Invasive Surgery with an emphasis on laparoscopic ventral and inguinal hernia repair, bariatric surgery, and solid organ surgery. He has co-authored several papers and has lectured extensively, both nationally and internationally.
Dr. Dolce is Board Certified in General Surgery. Special professional interests include advanced laparoscopic cases such as antireflux/hiatal hernias, ventral/incisional hernias, inguinal (groin) hernias, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, colorectal surgery, adrenalectomy, splenectomy, and cholecystectomy (gallbladder). In 2010, Dr. Dolce pursued advanced training in da Vinci Assisted Robotic Surgery with an emphasis on hernia repair, cholecystectomy, and colorectal surgery.
