General Surgery is a discipline of surgery having a central core of knowledge encompassing anatomy, physiology, metabolism, immunology, nutrition, pathology, wound healing, shock and resuscitation, intensive care, and neoplasia, which are common to all surgical specialties.
General surgery as a specialty includes a wide range of procedures, many of which take place in the abdomen. Our skilled general surgeons care for patients with underlying surgical conditions by coordinating care and management of each patient in every step of the way. This includes screening, surveillance, surgical intervention, rehabilitation, and follow-up care.
