General Surgery

PHH’s General Surgery service provides assessment and surgical treatment for a broad range of conditions affecting the abdomen, digestive tract, gallbladder, appendix, breast, skin and soft tissues. Treatment may include planned or emergency surgery using open or minimally invasive techniques when appropriate, supported by pre-operative assessment and post-operative care. Seek a general surgeon for persistent abdominal pain, a hernia, gallstones, suspected appendicitis, an unexplained lump, non-healing wound or a condition referred for surgical review. Sudden severe pain requires emergency assessment.
