What is General Surgery

General surgery is a specialty in medicine that focuses on the diagnosis, preoperative, operative, and postoperative management of a wide variety of diseases and conditions. It encompasses a broad range of procedures that address issues related to the abdomen, digestive system, endocrine system, and other critical body systems. Our skilled general surgeons are trained to perform both routine and complex surgeries, utilizing advanced techniques and state-of-the-art technology to ensure the best possible outcomes for our patients.

General surgery is not limited to a single organ or system and does not encompass highly specialized surgeries such as neurosurgery, cardiac surgery, or orthopedic surgery. It is not solely focused on emergency procedures; it also includes elective surgeries that are planned in advance based on the patient’s medical needs.

When Do You Need A Surgery?

General surgery is needed when a patient has a medical condition that cannot be effectively treated with medication or other non-surgical methods. It is often required for:

  • Acute conditions such as appendicitis, hernias, and gallstones.
  • Chronic conditions that impact quality of life or pose a long-term health risk, such as severe gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) or chronic cholecystitis.
  • Cancer treatment, including removal of tumors in the digestive system, thyroid, or other organs.
  • Preventive measures, such as removing potentially cancerous polyps or treating severe obesity through bariatric surgery.
