General Surgery

General Surgery

General surgery is a surgical specialty that focuses on the treatment of a wide range of surgical conditions affecting various parts of the body. General surgeons are skilled in performing surgical procedures on the abdomen, digestive tract, endocrine system, breast, skin, and soft tissues. They diagnose and treat conditions such as appendicitis, gallstones, hernias, colorectal disorders, and benign and malignant tumours. General surgeons use both traditional open surgical techniques and minimally invasive approaches, such as laparoscopy, to perform surgeries with precision and minimal trauma to the patient. They collaborate with other medical specialists, such as oncologists, gastroenterologists, and urologists, to provide comprehensive care for their patients.
