Gastrointestinal Surgery

Surgery & medical treatment for diseases of esophagus, stomach, duodenum, small intestines, appendix, colon, rectum and anal canal. Ours is a high burden unit for Gastrointestinal and Cancer surgery. A wide range of elective and emergency abdominal surgeries are regularly performed. We are performing most of the esophageal, gastric, intestinal, hepatobiliary, pancreatic, colorectal and anal surgeries.  A large number of operations are done laparoscopically offering the advantage of minimal incisions and early recovery.
