- General Surgery
Patients are referred to the General Surgery department for conditions like hernias, abdominal pain, gallbladder issues, appendicitis, infections, or soft tissue swellings—especially when surgical evaluation becomes necessary.
Surgery is considered when non-invasive treatments are no longer effective, or when diagnostics clearly indicate the need. Minimally invasive techniques may be used to reduce recovery time and improve outcomes.
Each case begins with careful pre-operative assessment. Post-surgery, care includes pain management, wound care, and regular follow-ups to support safe recovery.
Laparoscopic, Endoscopic & Bariatric Surgeon
Laparoscopic or open procedures are performed to remove the gallbladder, usually in cases of gallstones, chronic inflammation, or infection. Patients often report relief from recurring pain or digestive discomfort following surgery.
The appendix is surgically removed in cases of acute or recurrent appendicitis. This is typically done as an emergency procedure to prevent rupture and further complications like peritonitis.
Surgical repair is done for different types of hernias, such as inguinal, umbilical, or incisional, through open or minimally invasive methods. Timely intervention helps reduce pain, prevent recurrence, and avoid complications like strangulation.
Lumps in the breast that are benign, painful, or suspicious are surgically removed after proper clinical and imaging evaluation. The procedure may be done under local or general anaesthesia, depending on the case.
Conditions like piles, fissures, and fistulas are addressed through appropriate surgical techniques. These are common concerns that often cause pain, bleeding, or discomfort and may require operative treatment when persistent.
Surgeries may be required for conditions involving the stomach, intestines, or bowel—such as chronic obstruction, ulcers, or growths. These are planned based on symptoms, imaging, and overall clinical evaluation.
Thyroidectomy or nodule removal is advised in cases of goitre, suspected malignancy, or functional thyroid disorders. The decision to operate is made after blood tests, ultrasound, and possibly biopsy.
Benign or symptomatic lumps under the skin or muscle are surgically excised for relief or further testing. These may include lipomas, cysts, or fibromas that grow in size or cause discomfort.
Immediate surgical care is provided in cases such as internal bleeding, acute abdomen, or traumatic injuries. These situations often require rapid diagnosis and operative management to stabilise the patient.
