General Surgery is a specialty closely associated with preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative care for patients with various conditions, covering both elective and emergency surgeries.
As one of AIH’s five key specialties, the General Surgery Department provides a wide range of surgical care across multiple subspecialties, adhering to international standards. Our team of highly trained, certified surgeons is dedicated to supporting patients throughout their surgical journey, from consultation to post-operative care.
Today, minimally invasive surgery offers numerous advantages, including minimal or no incisions, smaller scars, reduced pain, lower risk of infection, minimal blood loss, shorter hospital stays, faster recovery, and fewer complications, allowing patients to return to their daily activities sooner. At AIH, we specialize in both open and minimally invasive surgeries, utilizing state-of-the-art surgical tools, including robotic-assisted technology for traditional laparoscopic procedures.
