Edward Horvath

Eric Horvath, DO, FACS is Board Certified in Surgery and Surgical Critical Care. He practices with Alamo City Surgeons in San Antonio.

After graduating from college, Dr. Horvath enlisted in the military and completed a degree in osteopathic medicine. After his internship, he served as a battalion surgeon in Korea. He completed his residency in Surgery and two fellowships—in surgical critical care and burn—at Brooke Army Medical Center at Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio. Following his training, he served with the Army Burn SMART flight team USAISR, including two terms as the assistant clinical director of the unit – one of his proudest accomplishments. Having attained the rank of major, Dr. Horvath left the military in 2007.

Dr. Horvath knows what he was meant to do. “I’m constantly bombarded by phone calls—day and night, but when I get into the operating room and hand off my phone, I get to just focus on what I love to do,” he says. Equally passionate about his time in the clinic meeting new patients, Dr. Horvath enjoys the human interaction—frequently sharing stories about his children (whom he affectionately refers to as his “knuckleheads”), learning about his patients’ lives and remembering their stories.

Dr. Horvath sees patients at the Northeast location of Alamo City Surgeons and performs general, robotic and critical care surgery at Methodist Hospital | Northeast.
