About Eric Luedke, MD
As Medical Director of the Sharp Memorial Bariatric Surgery Program, I am committed to providing you with the highest quality surgical care and have been designated a Surgeon of Excellence in Robotic Surgery by the Surgical Review Corporation. I believe that the physician-patient relationship works best with open communication and trust. It is my goal to form a strong connection with each of my patients and to develop a treatment plan together using a combination of medical knowledge, compassion, innovation and surgical technology. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family and friends. I also love outdoor activities such as running, hiking and fishing.

Dr. Ludke was very reassuring that symptoms would disappear over several weeks, and that seems to be what is happening.
