Dr. Matthew Scriven is a board-certified surgeon. He joined Inova Health System in 2020 and has been practicing since 2012.  Read Dr. Scriven’s personal statement below I was driven to be a surgeon because of my desire to have a career where I could have a direct, positive impact in people’s lives. I also wanted to be in an environment where I am constantly challenged and have the opportunity to continually learn. I want each and every one of my patients to leave the office feeling well informed about their medical problem and the options available to them for treatment.
