General & Bariatric Surgery
Meet Dr. Baldwin
Dr. Dustin Baldwin is a minimally invasive surgeon specializing in robotic, bariatric and general surgery. Dr. Baldwin is originally from rural Wisconsin, where he grew up on a dairy farm. He was an avid runner and received a cross country and track scholarship to attend the University of Wisconsin-Parkside. While at Parkside, he received his Bachelor of Science degree in Biology. From there he attended medical school at the University of Wisconsin and completed his general surgery training at the University of Illinois-Chicago. While in Chicago, he began his training in general, bariatric and robotic surgery. He developed an interest in bariatric surgery and accomplished research in the field presenting at both national and international conferences. He then matched into and completed his bariatric surgery fellowship at East Carolina University (ECU) in North Carolina training under two past presidents of the American Society of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgeons (ASMBS).
While at ECU, Dr. Baldwin completed numerous bariatric procedures including sleeve gastrectomy, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, single anastomosis duodenal ileostomy (SADI) and multiple revisional procedures including conversion of sleeve gastrectomy to bypass and bypass revisions for ineffective weight loss. Dr. Baldwin also performs a wide range of operations including gallbladder surgery, foregut operations for reflux and hiatal hernias and abdominal wall and groin hernias. He performs these operations utilizing the robotic surgery platform which minimizes incision size, recovery and pain after surgery.
Dr. Baldwin is a member of the ASMBS and is board certified in general surgery by the American board of surgery. Dr. Baldwin is fluent in Spanish and moved to Las Vegas with his wife and daughter. Dr. Baldwin’s hobbies include marathon running, biking, hiking and spending time with his family.
I can’t say enough about Dr. Dustin Baldwin! His care and positive attitude shown toward me during pre-surgery, day of surgery, and post-surgery was off the charts! Including his bedside manners, surgical instructions, and humor remove any and all anxiety regarding the entire process. I highly recommend him to any of you who are seeking medical care that requires his incredible skill as a surgeon.
