How We Diagnose Conditions Requiring Surgery:

Accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment. Our General Surgery Department offers a variety of diagnostic tools and procedures, including:

  • Physical Examination: Assessing symptoms and examining the affected area.
  • Imaging Tests: Such as X-rays, ultrasounds, CT scans, and MRIs to view internal organs and detect abnormalities.
  • Endoscopy: Using a flexible tube with a camera to examine the digestive tract and diagnose conditions like GERD and colorectal cancer.
  • Biopsy: Taking a small sample of tissue for examination to diagnose conditions like cancer.
  • Blood Tests: To detect infections, monitor organ function, and diagnose various conditions.

Treatment Options:

Our General Surgery Department provides a wide range of treatment options tailored to each patient’s specific needs. These include:

  • Minimally Invasive Surgery: Using small incisions and specialized instruments to perform procedures with less pain and faster recovery. This includes laparoscopic surgery for conditions like hernias and gallbladder disease.
  • Traditional Open Surgery: When necessary for more complex conditions, involving larger incisions to access the affected area.
