We provide a wide range of investigations and treatment for benign and cancerous surgical diseases, with specialisation in upper GI surgery. We also provide a range of interventions to treat diseases of the gall bladderand endocrine system (thyroid, parathyroid and adrenal organs).  We have extensive experience in minimally invasive (keyhole) surgery. A variety of minimal invasive surgeries are performed, where appropriate, including laparascopic cholecystectomy, hernia repair, colonic resection and anti-reflux surgery.

Upper GI endoscopy or gastroscopy is the examination of the upper gastrointestinal tract (oesophagus, stomach and duodenum) using a specialised long, thin video camera with a light on the end. It is used to diagnose and treat many upper gastrointestinal tract problems.

Hernia Repair

A hernia is an abnormal protrusion of a loop of intestine, or other internal organs, through a weak area of the abdominal wall.

​

Laparoscopic Surgery

Laparoscopic surgery (also known as minimally invasive, or keyhole surgery) is one the major advances in modern surgical techniques. It involves the use of small incisions in the abdomen (usually less than an inch long) through which long thin instruments can reach and treat the internal organs.
