He is passionate about helping patients achieve meaningful, lasting improvements in health—often resolving obesityrelated conditions such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, and obstructive sleep apnea, thereby extending both lifespan and quality of life.
In addition to his clinical work, Dr. Pyke’s research focuses on health literacy, surgical education, global surgery, and obesity surgery, with particular emphasis on the management of ulcers following bariatric surgery. He has a special interest in understanding disease at both the population and individual level.
At NYU Langone Hospital–Long Island, Dr. Pyke serves as an Associate Program Director for the General Surgery Residency Program, where he oversees didactic education, simulation training, and surgical skills development.
