General Surgery in Sharjah

Sharjah’s Leading Surgical Team for Safe, Skilled, and Specialized Care

What Is General Surgery?

General surgery is a medical specialty focused on diagnosing and treating conditions that require surgical intervention — especially those related to the abdomen, digestive tract, thyroid, skin, and soft tissue. General surgeons are trained in a broad range of procedures and often collaborate closely with other specialists to deliver safe, coordinated care before, during, and after surgery.

Why Might You Need a General Surgeon?

You may be referred to a general surgeon if your condition involves a structural issue that requires surgical treatment, such as gallstones, hernias, or appendicitis. You may also need surgery to remove abnormal growths, manage chronic conditions, or address infections or injuries that can’t be resolved with medication alone.
