General Surgery

General surgery is a medical specialty focused on diagnosing and treating a wide range of conditions that may require surgical intervention.

General surgeons are trained to perform both routine and complex procedures involving the abdomen, digestive tract, skin, soft tissues, and endocrine system. They use advanced surgical techniques—from minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery to traditional open procedures—to ensure safe, effective treatment tailored to each patient’s needs. With a focus on precision, patient safety, and comprehensive care, general surgery plays a vital role in managing acute illnesses, chronic conditions, and emergency situations.

General surgery at GibMed offers comprehensive surgical care delivered by highly skilled, UK-trained consultants. Their team includes Dr. David Deardon, a general surgeon and endoscopist, who specialises in day-case surgery, hernia repairs, gallbladder surgery, varicose vein treatment, and bariatric surgery.

We also provide advanced endoscopic services: gastroscopy and colonoscopy are available as day-case procedures under sedation, carried out by experienced colorectal and gastrointestinal surgeons. The surgical unit treats a wide range of GI and colorectal conditions, including cancer, perianal disease, and colon pathology, using both open and laparoscopic techniques.

Our general surgery department emphasise patient-centred, minimally invasive care. With state-of-the-art facilities and a multidisciplinary team, GibMed ensures that surgical assessment, treatment, and recovery are seamlessly integrated within its broader private healthcare services.
