General surgery is the surgical treatment for abdominal organs such as the intestines, esophagus, stomach, small bowel, colon, liver, pancreas, gallbladder and bile ducts, thyroid gland and lungs. A general surgery may also be used to treat non-cosmetic problems related to skin, breast and hernias.
At Upson, our surgeons are specialty trained in endovascular and minimally-invasive surgical techniques that may help you recover faster and with less pain than traditional surgery.
