General surgeons treat a broad range of conditions that may require surgical management, including hernias, appendicitis, gallbladder disease, selected gastrointestinal conditions, thyroid and breast conditions, skin and soft-tissue conditions, and certain abdominal emergencies.
Not every condition requires an operation. Your surgeon will assess your symptoms, examination findings and diagnostic results and discuss whether surgery, medication, observation or another treatment approach is appropriate.
Minimally invasive techniques may be available for selected procedures. Whether you are a suitable candidate depends on your condition, anatomy, medical history and the specific procedure required.
Your surgical and anaesthesia teams will provide individual instructions based on your procedure. These may include fasting requirements, medication adjustments, diagnostic tests and other preoperative preparations.
Recovery depends on the type of surgery and your overall health. Your care plan may include pain management, wound care, nutrition, mobilisation and monitoring before discharge, followed by scheduled follow-up where required.
Hospital stay varies considerably depending on the procedure, your health and how you recover. Some procedures may allow discharge relatively quickly, while more complex operations may require longer monitoring.
Sudden severe abdominal pain, significant bleeding, serious injuries, loss of consciousness or other rapidly worsening symptoms may require emergency assessment.
