Laproscopy and General surgery

A general surgeon is a medical doctor who is trained to perform a wide variety of surgical procedures. They are experts in diagnosing, treating, and managing diseases or injuries that require surgery, especially involving.

Common Areas Laproscopy and General surgery Work On

  • Abdomen and digestive tract: stomach, intestines, esophagus, liver, gallbladder, pancreas

  • Breast: surgery for conditions like breast cancer or cysts

  • Skin and soft tissues: removal of lumps, cysts, or tumors

  • Endocrine system: thyroid and adrenal gland surgery

  • Emergency surgeries: like appendectomy (removal of appendix) or treating trauma

  • Hernias: repairing weak spots in the abdominal wall

Training

General surgeons complete:

  1. A medical degree (MBBS or equivalent)

  2. A residency in general surgery (typically 5–7 years)

  3. Some pursue fellowships to specialize further (e.g., in colorectal, vascular, or trauma surgery)

They’re called “general” surgeons because they are trained to handle many different types of surgeries rather than focusing only on one organ or system.
