General surgery is the backbone of surgical care, encompassing a wide range of procedures to address conditions affecting the abdomen, skin, soft tissues, endocrine system, and more. Despite the name, general surgery is actually a surgical specialty. General surgeons undergo extensive training to become versatile specialists capable of handling everything from minor surgeries to complex procedures. In the process, they acquire comprehensive skills in surgical techniques, patient care, and critical decision-making.

Patients may require the expertise of a general surgeon for various reasons, such as traumatic injuries, cancer diagnoses, or complex conditions that may not respond to non-surgical treatments. General surgeons are also skilled in emergency surgery, providing immediate care in life-threatening situations such as appendicitis, bowel obstructions, and severe infections. In addition to performing surgery, general surgeons are responsible for patient care before and after surgery.
