Dr. Igor Belyansky is a board-certified, fellowship-trained Abdominal Wall Reconstruction (AWR) surgeon and Chief of General Surgery at Luminis Health Anne Arundel Medical Center. He is the Director of the Abdominal Wall Reconstruction Program and Fellowship. With one of the few dedicated AWR fellowships in the United States, Luminis Health is recognized nationally and internationally for advanced training in complex hernia and abdominal wall surgery.
Dr. Belyansky’s practice focuses on complex abdominal wall reconstruction, including large, recurrent, difficult-to-treat hernias and previously failed repairs. His expertise attracts patients from the local community as well as across the East Coast, reflecting the trust and confidence they place in his care.
He utilizes advanced minimally invasive and robotic techniques when appropriate to reduce pain, scarring, and recovery time while maintaining strong, durable results. For more complex cases or when patients are not candidates for minimally invasive surgery, he performs complex open repairs. In addition to restoring function, he considers the overall appearance of the abdomen and, when appropriate, may remove excess skin to enhance contour and help patients feel confident in their outcome.
Dr. Belyansky completed his minimally invasive surgery fellowship at Carolinas Medical Center, his general surgery residency at MedStar Union Memorial Hospital in Baltimore, and earned his medical degree from Virginia Commonwealth University School of Medicine. He has authored numerous peer-reviewed publications and lectures nationally and internationally on abdominal wall reconstruction.
