General Surgery
General surgeons are specialists prepared to manage a broad spectrum
of surgical conditions affecting almost any area of the body. They establish the diagnosis
and provide pre-operative, operative and post-operative care to surgical patients and are
usually responsible for the comprehensive management of the trauma victim and the
critically ill. Through surgical means, they treat congenital, infectious, metabolic and
neoplastic problems relating to the head and neck, breast, abdomen, extremities, including
the hand and the gastrointestinal, vascular and endocrine systems. They use a variety of
diagnostic techniques for observing internal structures, and may use specialized
instruments during operative procedures. They also are familiar with the features of other
surgical specialties in order to recognize problems in those areas and to know when to
refer a patient to another specialist.
