What is General Surgery?


General surgery usually involves common abdominal complaints. These usually involve laparoscopic, robotic and conventional surgical methods to treat. In most cases, a minimally invasive approach with smaller incisions is possible. This may be done robotically or laparoscopically.

Procedures include:

Robotic Surgery

The da Vinci® Surgical System allows procedures to be done quickly and efficiently through small incisions. Robotic surgery is a minimally invasive alternative to open surgery and laparoscopic procedures and is fast becoming the surgical method of choice for a variety of procedures.

How Robotic Surgery Works

Before Your Surgery

Before an elective surgery, you’ll have an appointment with the Pre-Admission Testing Department.

During this appointment, you will be assessed by a nurse and will also go over pre- and postoperative care information relevant to your upcoming procedure. Your Pre-Admission Testing appointment will be scheduled at the time your surgery is scheduled. Please have all of your health information ready including name and dose of any medications you take. On the day of your procedure, you will receive a complete pre-operative evaluation from an anesthesiologist who will review your information.
