General Surgery

What is General Surgery?

General surgery encompasses a wide range of surgical procedures aimed at treating diseases, injuries, and deformities affecting the abdomen, digestive tract, endocrine system, breast, skin, and soft tissues. From appendectomies to hernia repairs, from gallbladder removals to colonoscopies, general surgeons are trained to diagnose, manage, and perform surgical interventions for a diverse array of conditions.
