  • Assesses patients, orders investigations, determines surgical indications, performs operations, oversees postoperative care
  • Treats traumatic injuries, neoplasms, hernias, appendiceal inflammation, biliary disease, and vascular pathology
  • Uses conventional open techniques, laparoscopic methods, robotic-assisted procedures, and minimally invasive approaches
