Book a secure video consultation for expert General Surgeon care.
A general surgeon has medical training to diagnose, treat, and perform surgery on numerous conditions related to the abdomen, digestive tract, thyroid, breast, skin, and soft tissues. They also provide surgery for trauma and emergency conditions.
You may need to visit a general surgeon for abdominal pain or swelling, hernias or lumps, gallbladder, liver, or pancreas issues, thyroid nodules or lumps of the breast, for trauma or injury needing surgical care, or unexplained gastrointestinal problems.
General surgeons perform procedures such as an appendectomy, gallbladder removal, hernia repair (inguinal, umbilical, ventral), surgery of the stomach, liver, pancreas, or colon, thyroid and breast surgery, laparoscopic procedures, minimally invasive procedures, and trauma and emergency surgery.
Yes. In today’s general surgery, we use cutting-edge techniques. We can perform many surgical techniques laparoscopically or in a minimally invasive way, which can help reduce pain, speed recovery time, and lower the risk of complications.
Preparation can consist of performing blood tests, imaging, or endoscopy; changing or stopping medications as directed by your doctor; fasting before the procedure; and discussing allergies, prior surgeries, and medical history.
