Dr. Steve de Castro is a surgeon at the OLVG and has now also joined our team at Medical Centre Jan van Goyen. Dr. De Castro studied Medicine at the University of Amsterdam and then completed his surgery training at the AMC. In addition to general surgery, Steve de Castro specialised in gastrointestinal surgery, bariatric surgery, and proctology. The last specialist area deals with the ‘exit’ of our body. This includes the treatment of haemorrhoids, fissures (clefts in the skin around the anus), abscesses or fistulas around the anus, and warts.
At the OLVG, he also trains assistant physicians by giving lectures and supervision. In addition, he regularly visits scientific conferences and refresher courses to remain up to date with the latest developments.
Dr. De Castro divides his time as a surgeon between Medical Centre Jan van Goyen and the OLVG East and West locations.
