Hi, I'm Dr. Tony Vine. I'm a laparoscopic
surgeon, so I do minimally invasive surgery,
00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:13.000
[Visual: Illustration of the digestive tract.]
involving the intestinal tract all the way
from the esophagus down to the anus.
00:00:13.000 --> 00:00:22.000
[Visual: Dr. Vine walking through the hallway of his
medical practice and into his office.]
How I came to medicine was really through my father.
I asked him if he wanted me to take over his dental practice.
00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:30.000
[Visual: Photo of Dr. Vine smiling with his elderly father.]
And he said to me, “For the four years that you go to dental school,
you may as well go to medical school and learn the whole thing.”
00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:38.000
[Visual: Photo of Dr. Vine standing wearing blue scrubs.
Then, Dr. Vine speaking to the camera.]
I have been practicing medicine for approximately
30 years.
00:00:38.000 --> 00:00:47.000
[Visual: Photo of Dr. Vine with former classmates
at Vanderbilt Medical School.]
I graduated from Vanderbilt Medical School in 1989, and started
at Mount Sinai for my residency in that same year…
00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:54.000
[Visual: Back to Dr. Vine speaking directly to
the camera]
…and did two years of research in the middle of
my residency at Massachusetts General Hospital.
00:00:54.000 --> 00:01:03.000
[Visual: Mount Sinai graduation photo of
Dr. Vine with classmates and professors.]
Came back to Sinai in 1994 and graduated
as a chief resident from there in 1996…
00:01:03.000 --> 00:01:10.000
[Visual: Photo of Dr. Vine performing surgery in blue scrubs.]
…and immediately started work in July of 1996.
00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:16.000
[Visual: Dr. Vine, smiling and speaking to the
camera, then a photo of Dr. Vine playing violin in green scrubs.]
In my spare time,
whatever little there may be of it,
you can find me practicing my violin.
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:24.000
[Visual: Video of Dr. Vine at desk.]
[Visual: Then, photos of Dr. Vine with NY State Senators.]
You might find me preparing for a meeting
with a New York State Senator for lobby day.
00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:29.000
[Visual: Photo of Dr. Vine with one of
his chief residents.]
You might find me teaching the
medical students and residents.
00:01:29.000 --> 00:01:34.000
[Visual: Photo of Dr. Vine with a chief resident.]
I think that my humanistic background,
having been an English major in college,
00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:44.000
[Visual: Video of Dr. Vine playing with the orchestra.
Music: Background music fades out.
Sound of Dr. Vine playing the violin begins.]
being a violinist, I feel that I come to medicine
with more of a humanistic, compassionate approach.
00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:49.000
[Visual: Dr. Vine speaking to camera.
Music: Violin music fades out.
Original background music resumes softly.]
I really try and treat my patients as if they were my family members.
00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:54.000

Stomach and Small Bowel Conditions
For many years, Dr. Anthony Vine has had great success treating stomach and small bowel conditions laparoscopically. This minimally invasive approach reduces the risk of complications and allows for faster recovery time.
The following conditions can be treated with laparoscopic surgery.
- Stomach cancer
- Peptic ulcers with complications – perforations, bleeding and blockages
- Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
- Gastroparesis – delayed emptying of the stomach into the small intestines, caused by damaged in the stomach
- Benign and malignant stomach tumors or polyps
Laparoscopic small bowel resection surgery may be performed to treat the following conditions.
- Small bowel obstruction which may be caused by adhesions or scar tissue
- Inflammatory bowel diseases – Crohn’s and Ulcerative Colitis
- Diverticulitis – inflammation or infection of diverticula (small pouches that form in weakened sections of the intestinal wall)
- Intestinal perforations or fistulas
- Benign or malignant small bowel tumors
- Meckel’s diverticulum – a congenital condition in which a small pouch forms in the wall of the small intestines

Dr. Anthony Vine is an Attending Surgeon and Clinical Professor of Surgery at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai Hospital. His office is located at 1010 5th Avenue at the Laparoscopic Surgical Center of New York.
