Jaishou Xu,  M.D.

Jaishou Xu, M.D.

General Surgery
Dr. Jiashou Xu is from Fayetteville, Arkansas and completed his bachelor of science in industrial engineering at University of Arkansas. He completed his medical degree at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences. He completed his general surgery training at St Louis University. Finally, he underwent further training in a Minimal Invasive, Bariatric, and Robotic surgery fellowship in the Bay Area of Oakland, California. This extra training was to offer patients more options in terms of minimally invasive surgery and ultimately faster and less painful recovery. Dr. Xu completed his fellowship in robotic surgery as well as completed more robotic cases than any other fellow in California. After fellowship, he moved to Henderson, NV and helped grow the robotic surgery program at St. Rose Siena and became the medical director of weight loss surgery at St. Rose Siena. Throughout Dr. Xu’s extensive training and accomplishments, his guiding quote has been, “I ask not for a lighter burden, but broader shoulders.”
