Our dedicated and skilled surgeons offer 24-hour surgical care, including minimally invasive procedures such as Laparoscopic Appendectomy, Laparoscopic Perforation Repair, and Diagnostic Laparoscopy. Emergency services also include exploration for blunt and penetrating trauma, road traffic accidents, bowel obstruction, and obstructed hernia.

We are leaders in surgical nutrition and follow the ERAS protocol to enhance patient recovery, with most patients admitted on the day of surgery and discharged early, while minimizing the use of drains and tubes. Our department routinely performs diagnostic and therapeutic Upper and Lower GI endoscopies and hosts regular multidisciplinary meetings to tailor patient treatment. With over 4,700 cases handled in the past five years, our team is actively engaged in teaching and seminars, earning recognition for their expertise and teamwork.
