Dr. Iskandar is a board-certified general surgeon with fellowship training in minimally invasive and bariatric surgery, and he holds recognition as a Surgeon of Excellence in Hernia Surgery, a designation held by only two practices in North Texas. He is also a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons and serves as an Associate Professor of Surgery, combining clinical practice with academic involvement in the field. These credentials reflect a level of scrutiny and ongoing education beyond standard surgical training. 

Performing Lichtenstein repair well depends on precise mesh sizing, careful anchoring near sensitive anatomical structures, and judgment about anesthesia and incision planning tailored to each patient. Dr. Iskandar's broad experience across both straightforward and complex hernia cases means Lichtenstein repair is applied with the same level of attention to detail used in more complicated cases, rather than as a routine, one-size-fits-all procedure.
