As a surgeon often referred the most complex and complicated cases in my specialty, I understand how stressful it can be for patients and families who have suffered greatly from a significant medical condition that requires surgery. I strive to provide patient centered, timely, compassionate, and exceptional care to all of my patients. I aim to include my patients in the decision making process, to understand their treatment goals, and to create a treatment plan that is tailored just for them.

About

Dr. Gould joined Froedtert & the Medical College of Wisconsin as the Chief of General Surgery (now known as Minimally Invasive and Gastrointestinal Surgery) in 2011 after 9 years in practice at the University of Wisconsin. He is currently Professor of Surgery and he holds the Walker Endowed Chair in General Surgery at the Medical College. He has a national reputation as a minimally invasive foregut surgeon (specializes in the surgical treatment of diseases of the stomach and esophagus) and as a bariatric surgeon (weight loss surgery). He is frequently invited to give talks on his areas of expertise, and has published extensively on these topics as well. His research focus is on clinical outcomes in foregut surgery, innovation and the development of new surgical devices and technologies, and surgical skills training through simulation.

I was very nervous coming in but the nurses and Dr were nice and listened to me and answered all my questions in detail and I left excited about the process and much calmer.
It was very satisfying to be treated so well with kindness, respect , understanding and the Dr. G listens. The Nurses were also nice and kind. I happy with the decision I made to go with this particular doctor.
Care provider, nurse and medical assistant were thorough and walked me through process of my visit.
Very knowledgeable for my issues. Very respectful as well.
Thank you.
Excellent care
This was a great team. Thank you for allaying my fears.
Had a very good experience. I appreciate the open explanation of my issue and ways to remedy the problem.
Showed concerns and talked about my A1C. My diabetes is up and down. But we're can still work on it and trying to get A1C down. Hopefully be able to do surgery.
Very friendly, answered my questions so I could understand what was happening with the problems I have going on! Dr Could explained how the surgery would be done from beginning to end. The following appointments were done promptly and very professionally! I do believe and feel I am in very good hands with Dr Could and his Staff. I will be glad when the pain is finally gone! Thank you all!
Under the circumstances a very pleasant experience.
Love Dr Gould! He's a great doctor!
