WASHINGTON – U.S. Representative Tom Marino (R-10) will undergo surgery to remove small tumors located on his kidney.  His doctors anticipate a full recovery and the Representative will resume a full schedule after a brief recovery period. The surgery will be performed Monday, April 9 at the Cleveland Clinic under the care of Dr. Jihad Kaouk.

Bill Tighe, Chief of Staff for Marino, emphasized that services for residents of the 10th district will continue as usual.  “Individuals in need of assistance should contact our Washington office or one of our constituent service centers located across the district,” Tighe said. “Since being sworn in to office in 2011, Tom has made constituent service and outreach a top priority and our staff will work tirelessly to honor that commitment while he recuperates.”

Marino was elected in 2010.
