General Surgery

The General Surgery unit fuses high-volume operative exposure with simulation-guided mastery. Five HEPA-filtered modular OTs host >3 000 procedures annually, including 4 K laparoscopic appendectomies, cholecystectomies and hernia repairs. Real-time fluorescence imaging and energy devices improve precision while lowering complication rates. Trauma bays receive highway crashes and agricultural injuries, sharpening rapid haemorrhage control and damage-control laparotomy skills.

A Sim-OR lab lets interns practise knot-tying, stapling and laparoscopic suturing on virtual trainers before graduating to live tissue. Faculty emphasise audit culture—weekly morbidity-mortality meetings and root-cause analyses feed continuous improvement and research abstracts on gall-stone epidemiology, mesh design and ERAS outcomes. Collaboration with GI endoscopy and oncology teams ensures broad exposure from diagnostic scopes to Whipple resections, crafting graduates ready for MS seats or district-hospital leadership.
