Key Conditions Treated

Under one roof, we diagnose and treat all kinds of diseases. The most specialised care is provided for you by competent medical directors, together with carefully selected clinical employees.

  • Appendicitis: Appendicitis can cause considerable pain in the stomach, which may need surgery. Appendicitis is dangerous and can rupture, hence becoming life-threatening in case of delayed treatment.
  • Gallbladder Disorders: Together, gallstones and inflammation result in pain, nausea, and digestive problems. These can develop into infection or bile duct blockage if they are not treated.
  • Hernias: It occurs when there is a weak spot in muscles or tendons where an organ or tissue bulges out. Some of the signs include pain through lifting exercises as well as noticing the presence of a hump on the problematic area.
  • Thyroid and Parathyroid Conditions: Swelling in the neck, weight gains, or tiredness may signal nodule issues, goitres, or hormonal abnormalities that impact metabolism and calcium regulation.
  • Colorectal Conditions:  It includes conditions like tumours, diverticulitis, and inflammatory bowel diseases. These conditions can cause symptoms, including stomach discomfort, changes in bowel habits, or rectal bleeding.
  • Wound/Infection/Burns Debridement: Removing dead or contaminated tissues from burns or wounds speeds up recovery and reduces the risk of serious infections like sepsis.

Appendicectomy

An appendectomy, also termed appendicectomy, is the removal of the vermiform appendix during a surgical operation.

Hernia Repairs

Herniorrhaphy or hernia repair surgery simply means returning displaced tissues to the correct anatomic location. Hernioplasty is another surgery that is used to correct hernias by stitching a mesh patch over the compromised area of tissue.

Gallbladder Surgeries

This is the surgical removal of your gallbladder, a pear-shaped organ located on the right side of the belly, also known as cholecystectomy.

Cataract Surgery

Without the treatment cataracts lead to clouding of the eye lens and lead to complications such as poor vision and even blindness. A cloudy lens is eliminated through surgery with an artificial lens to enhance eyesight.

Mastectomy

This is surgery where one or both breasts are removed, normally due to breast cancer or to prevent it from occurring. This process is often used when other sorts of treatments, which may include chemotherapy and radiation therapy, cannot work well.

Hemorrhoidectomy

Haemorrhoidectomy refers to the surgical removal of large, severe internal or external haemorrhoids.

Prostatectomy

The surgical removal of all or part of the gland is referred to as prostatectomy.  There are two primary reasons for a prostatectomy: benign prostatic hyperplasia and malignancy.

Dental extraction

A dental extraction is the process of removing teeth from the dental alveolus (socket) in the alveolar bone. It is also referred to as tooth extraction, exodontia, exodontics, or, colloquially known as tooth pulling.
