Meet MPSC.
Community‑owned. Nationally recognized.
Always patient‑first.
Monterey Peninsula Surgery Centers
MPSC has been redefining surgical care on the Peninsula since 1982. Founded by local physicians who saw a better way, we combine advanced, minimally invasive techniques with the kind of personal attention only a community-based team can provide. Our surgeons, nurses, and staff live here, work here, and are dedicated to making every step of your surgical journey safe, clear, and comfortable. From your first phone call to your final follow-up, you’ll always have a real person to guide you—because you’re not just our patient, you’re our neighbor.

Advanced Care, Designed Around You
Every year, thousands of patients trust MPSC for their surgical care. We combine cutting-edge technology—like lasers, robotic arms, and fiber optics—with the personal attention of a highly trained, compassionate team. Our approach means lower costs, faster recovery, and better results. From easy scheduling to same-day discharge, we keep the whole experience simple and focused on you.
Modern Surgery. Smarter Technology.
At MPSC, we’re redefining what surgery can be. Using the latest in minimally invasive techniques—including advanced, robot-assisted total joint replacement—we deliver greater precision, smaller incisions, and faster recovery times. Our technology allows our surgeons to operate with unmatched accuracy, reducing post-operative pain, lowering complication risks, and helping you get back to your life sooner. From consultation to recovery, every step is designed for your comfort, safety, and confidence.

Meet Some of the People
Behind Your Care.
Our team is made up of surgeons, nurses, and healthcare professionals who live and work right here in our community. Meet a few of them as they share why they love MPSC, the work we do, and caring for our patients—bringing the same compassion and commitment to you that we give to our own families..

Our mission has always been to bring world-class surgical care to our community, because we’re not just serving patients—we’re serving our friends and neighbors.

Every patient who walks through our doors is treated like family. That’s the standard here, and it’s why I’m proud to lead this team.

I know surgery can feel overwhelming. If I can make scheduling the easiest part of the process, then patients can focus on what really matters—getting well.

It all comes down to trust. When a patient puts their health in our hands, it’s not something we take lightly. We carry that trust with the same dedication we’d give our own family.
