Dr. Bartlett has wanted to be a surgeon since his parents bought him a children's anatomy textbook while he was a first grader in Delaware. He still has it.

For Dr. Bartlett, surgery is the greatest specialty available because when it goes well, he sees his patient transition to a healthier state almost immediately. It's rewarding to see your work have such a dramatic impact.

"Patients can expect me to provide not only vascular surgical consultation but also pay attention to their total medical needs," he said. "I chose OSF Healthcare because of the people. From leadership to line physicians and nurses, the people are warm, dedicated and devoted to ethical patient care and conduct."

Dr. Bartlett is married to June. They have three children. Dr. Bartlett also owns and operates a beef cattle farm in West Virginia, where his family has deep roots, and in his free time he enjoys fishing, bird-watching, golf and racquetball.
