Frank C. Candela, MD, FACS

Robotic Surgeon & General Surgeon

Dr. Candela’s Retirement Announcement:

 

Dear Patients and Colleagues:

It has come time for me to announce my retirement from active surgical practice.  With a sound mind, and capable hands, it is time to explore other aspects of life.  I have dedicated many decades to performing my operations and caring form my patients to the best of my ability.  I leave with many fond memories of heroic patients, dedicated nurses, and hardworking colleagues.

Additionally, the way the West Hills community pulled together and supported the hospital staff during the Covid Pandemic was inspiring.  

I could not have had a better partner than Dr. David Schreier, who will assume care for all patients at Candela and Schreier Surgical, and will continue to keep the practice at the forefront of robotic surgery.  

I wish you all good health, and many pleasant days to come!
