About General Surgery

With our highly dedicated surgical staff combined with a clean, comfortable environment and outstanding nursing care, the Department of General Surgery is a top choice for surgical procedures for many people along the Konkan coastal from Calicut to Goa and whole of Karnataka.

At Kasturba Hospital, Manipal General Surgeons have specialized skills and training in the diagnosis and management of many diseases and disorders. Because of this broad knowledge, general surgeons are often called upon by subspecialists to assist in the comprehensive care of an injured patient or for the complete care of critically ill patients in the emergency room and intensive care units. Expert treatment from general surgeons at Kasturba Hospital is available to treat a wide range of diseases and medical problems. Our surgeons specialize in laparoscopic techniques – minimally invasive approaches that use smaller incisions than traditional surgery and are associated with shorter hospital stays, less pain, and quicker recovery. Department also has modern equipment including harmonic scalpel, enceal for effective easy and fast surgery.
