Overview
General surgery encompasses all surgeries not performed under specialties. The Doctors Clinic General Surgery department consists of board certified surgeons who perform an extremely wide range of surgeries. These surgeries include, but are not limited to; the abdominal organs (i.e. esophagus, stomach, bowels, liver, pancreas, and gallbladder), thyroid, parathyroid, abdominal wall, breasts and skin. Surgery for cancer, with direct communication with our Oncologists-Dr. Brian Kim and Dr. Ellen Chirichella, is also a main focus of our practice.
Approximately half of the surgeries may be performed with a laparoscopic technique. Our surgeons have more than 15 years of the most current laparoscopic, advance laparoscopic, and robotic training. The most common surgeries performed by our expert surgeons are laparoscopic hernia repair, laparoscopic Nissen Fundoplication, throidectomy, parathyroidectomy, laparoscopic bowel resection, breast biopsy, breast cancer surgery, laparoscopic cholecystectomy, and laparoscopic appendectomy.
