The ability to fix a person’s ailment with his hands drew Kamrun Jenabzadeh, MD, FACS, to surgery as a medical profession. “The camaraderie, teamwork, priority of great patient satisfaction, and constant striving for excellence in health care that is portrayed by all who work here is outstanding and remarkable,” he said. When he’s not working, Dr. Jenabzadeh enjoys spending time with his family and staying active by running, biking, and working out. He is a 7th degree black belt and plans to continue learning and passing on the knowledge to his children.
