Johnsrud Jeffrey

It all began on a hot and sunny California afternoon late in the summer of 2001. Dr. Jeffrey Johnsrud, a General Surgeon with extensive Laparoscopic skills, approached his friend and colleague Dr. Sami Hamamji with the proposal to begin a Bariatric Surgery program at St. Joseph Hospital, a state of the art community hospital in Orange, California.
