Dr. Tony M. Maalouf
During the 15 years he’s worked in the Butler area, Dr. Tony M. Maalouf has held fast to two simple but valuable standards: Do a good job; do no harm. And the BHS Surgery Team is stronger for it.

In addition to the usual spectrum of general surgery, Dr. Maalouf is skilled in many advanced laporoscopic surgeries including gastric bypass and minimally-invasive vascular surgeries. He prides himself on safety and trust, ethics he learned at Western Pennsylvania Hospital years ago.

Dr. David Melniczek
Dr. David Melniczek values taking extra time to care for his patients and making sure they understand their conditions – even if it often means long days. Before becoming a part of the BHS Surgery team, Dr. Melniczek graduated first in his major at Bucknell University and did his residency at Lehigh Valley Hospital.

Though he performs the usual array of general procedures, Dr. Melniczek specializes in minimally-invasive weight-loss surgeries and laparoscopic procedures.

To make an appointment, please call 724-431-4190.

Dr. Victor E. Nieto
When it comes to laporoscopic gall bladder surgery, Dr. Victor E. Nieto is a bit of a legend. He performed the first one in the area in 1990 and has done 10,000 since then. And because he’s served the area more than 30 years since his residency at Allegheny General Hospital, he’s someone you can count on.

Also highly trained in breast cancer-related surgeries, Dr. Nieto is a perfect example of the diverse skill and commitment represented by the BHS Surgery team.
