General surgery covers a wide aspect of surgical procedures from minor surgery to remove moles and other skin lesions, in-growing toenails, fibre-optic endoscopy, cancer surgery and advanced keyhole ' laparoscopic' surgery.

​

Minimal access ' keyhole' surgery is available for most conditions related to abdominal organs including the small intestines, for gallstones, complex diseases of the liver and pancreas as well hernias.

​

Our team comprises of highly expirienced consultants and nurse specialists, all of which have extensive general surgical experience, coupled with strong interests in several specialist fields, including: colorectal bowel cancer, cancer, upper gastrointestinal (GI) surgery, and minimally invasive surgery.

​

We offer a wide range of investigations and treatment for benign and cancerous surgical diseases, with specialisation in lower and upper GI surgery and provide a range of interventions to treat diseases of the gall bladderand with extensive experience in minimally invasive (keyhole) surgery. A variety of minimal invasive surgeries are performed, where appropriate, including laparascopic surgery, hernia repair, colonic resection and anti-reflux surgery. This augments the extensive range of cancer surgery taking place.

​

The Manchester General Surgeon realises fully that surgery is an advancing field and endeavours to provide its patients with the latest techniques in diagnosis and surgery where possible. Undergoing a surgical procedure can be stressful therefore patients are carefully informed of their diagnosis so that they should feel more relaxed and confident about undergoing any intended treatment.
