Details of Gastrointestinal GI Surgeons at Artemis Hospital
Digestive disorders such as chronic reflux, gallstones, hernias, and gastrointestinal cancers can significantly impact health and quality of life. When medical management is no longer effective, surgery is often the only treatment option. That’s where experienced gastrointestinal (GI) surgeons come in, providing precise and timely interventions to treat complex digestive conditions. Artemis Hospitals, Gurgaon, has a team of eminent GI surgeons who combine advanced skills with state-of-the-art technology to deliver safe, minimally-invasive procedures ensuring optimal outcomes. With a focus on faster and long-term relief, the hospital ensures that each patient receives expert, individualised care at every stage of the treatment.
What is a Gastrointestinal (GI) Surgeon?
A gastrointestinal (GI) surgeon is a medical specialist trained to diagnose and surgically treat diseases of the digestive tract. This includes organs such as the oesophagus, stomach, small and large intestines, liver, pancreas, gallbladder, and bile ducts. These surgeons are skilled in both open and minimally invasive procedures, and often manage conditions that cannot be effectively treated through medicine alone.
Also known as surgical gastroenterologists, GI surgeons perform critical interventions for cancers, blockages, severe inflammation, hernias, and organ dysfunction. Their work often involves coordination with gastroenterologists, oncologists, and radiologists to ensure comprehensive care and long-term management.
Conditions Treated by GI Surgeons
GI surgeons manage a wide spectrum of conditions affecting the digestive organs, from benign disorders to life-threatening diseases. At Artemis Hospitals, surgical gastroenterologists address complex cases with precision and evidence-based protocols.
Common conditions treated include:
Colorectal cancer: Tumours affecting the colon or rectum often require partial or complete surgical removal.
Small intestine and stomach tumours: Surgery may be performed to remove malignant or non-cancerous growths causing symptoms or obstruction.
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD): Severe cases of Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis may need surgical intervention to remove diseased segments of the intestine.
Gallbladder diseases: Chronic gallstones, infection, or gallbladder dysfunction may require cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal).
Hernias: Abdominal wall hernias, including inguinal, umbilical, and incisional types, are often corrected surgically.
Pancreatic and liver conditions: Surgical procedures are used for managing pancreatic cysts, tumours, or liver resections.
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD): In severe cases, anti-reflux surgery (fundoplication) may be recommended when lifestyle changes and medication are ineffective.
Types of GI Surgeries Performed
Gastrointestinal surgeons perform a wide range of procedures, from minimally invasive techniques to complex oncological surgeries. At Artemis Hospitals, the focus is on precision, safety, and achieving the best surgical outcomes with minimal disruption to daily life.
Common GI surgeries include:
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy: A minimally invasive procedure to remove the gallbladder, commonly performed for gallstones and inflammation.
Colectomy: Partial or total removal of the colon, often used to treat colorectal cancer or severe IBD.
Gastrectomy: Surgical removal of part or all of the stomach, usually for cancer, ulcers, or bleeding.
Whipple procedure: A complex surgery to remove parts of the pancreas, small intestine, and bile duct, mainly for pancreatic cancer.
Hernia repairs: Surgical correction of various hernias, including inguinal, femoral, and incisional types, through open or laparoscopic methods.
Colorectal resections: Surgery to remove diseased segments of the colon or rectum while preserving healthy bowel function.
