General Surgery

CareMount Medical’s general surgery team works closely with other specialists involved in each patient’s care to diagnose and provide timely surgical intervention for complex conditions. The general surgeons provide treatment for patients who have conditions ranging from hernia and appendicitis to life threatening diseases of the liver, chest, abdomen, lungs and intestines. Many procedures are performed on an out-patient basis, allowing the patient to return home the same day after recovery. Our surgeons use the most advanced tools and techniques, including minimally invasive (laparascopic) surgery and the da Vinci surgical robot, with the intent of increasing positive clinical outcomes and improving patient safety and recovery.
