Learn About Dr. Balsama

When he isn’t working to better himself, he’s working to better his practice, formerly serving as Acting Chairman for the Department of Surgery and as General Surgery Residency Program Director at Rowan-SOM. His dedication to his practice led him to be the first surgeon to perform the first LINX anti-reflux surgery at Jefferson Health NJ. In recognition of all his outstanding work, Dr. Balsama has been voted a “Top Doc” by SJ Magazine 6 years in a row.

Nutrition

Post-op life requires a lot of lifestyle changes. The first step to living a healthier life is maintaining a well-balanced diet. Dr. Balsama not only integrates a healthy diet into his own life, but he helps his patients to do so as well.

Fitness

In addition to diet, healthy living is also influenced by fitness. A routine exercise plan is essential to achieving and maintaining your best results. Showing patients that they can start at any time without expensive workout clothes or equipment, Dr. Balsama shares his love of running.

Music

But Dr. Louis Balsama’s interests don’t stop at food and fitness. He has a true love for music and is a passionate musician. Dr. Balsama plays the guitar, drums, and has a heart-warming singing voice which you can hear in the background of some of his videos.
