Patient Stories

Comprehensive General & Laparoscopic Surgery in Bangalore Hospitals

There’s a very human tendency to delay surgery. The word alone carries a weight that makes people put things off, for weeks, then months, sometimes years. But when a hernia keeps growing, gallstone attacks become more frequent, or a colorectal condition quietly worsens, delay isn’t caution. It’s just lingering discomfort with compounding risk.

At Bangalore Hospitals, Jayanagar and Kengeri, the General and Laparoscopic Surgery department offers trusted, high-quality care for a wide range of surgical conditions. From routine procedures to complex operations, the surgical team here is built around one outcome: getting you better, faster, with as little disruption to your life as possible.

 

What Does the General and Laparoscopic Surgery Department Treat? 

A lot, and with precision that goes beyond what a general practitioner or a standalone surgical clinic can offer. The surgical team specialises in a broad range of procedures, supported by modern operating rooms, advanced diagnostics, and post-operative care systems.

 

Hernia Repair: Are You Still Looking for Hernia Specialists Near Me? 

Stop searching. Bangalore Hospitals handles open and laparoscopic correction of inguinal, umbilical, and incisional hernias. The right technique is chosen based on hernia type, size, and patient health, not convenience. Same-day discharge is also available for eligible hernia repair cases.

 

Laparoscopic Surgery for GI Conditions: Faster Recovery, Smaller Incisions

Minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery techniques are used for faster healing and reduced discomfort across GI conditions. Gallbladder removal, appendectomy, and colorectal surgery are most done this way now. Days of recovery, not weeks. That’s not a small difference.

 

Colorectal and Thyroid Surgery: The Conditions People Quietly Endure

The department manages haemorrhoids, polyps, diverticular disease, and colorectal cancer through dedicated colorectal surgery, while thyroid surgery covers nodules, goitre, and thyroid cancer. These are conditions people tolerate far longer than they should. Both have real, surgical solutions here.

 

Breast Surgery and Skin Lesion Removal: Benign or Malignant, Both Managed

Breast surgery, including lumpectomy and mastectomy, is performed for both benign and malignant conditions, supported by surgical oncology expertise on-site. Skin and soft tissue surgery covers the removal of cysts, lipomas, abscesses, and lesions with minimal scarring.

 

How Does Surgery at Bangalore Hospitals Actually Work? 

The process begins with a detailed evaluation, including physical exams, imaging, and blood tests, followed by a customised care plan tailored to your diagnosis, health status, and goals. Surgery is then performed using open, laparoscopic, or minimally invasive techniques by the appropriate specialist. After that, post-op care includes pain control, nutritional support, wound healing, and routine follow-ups, with follow-ups scheduled within 7 days and teleconsults available.

 

Who Are the General Surgeon Doctors at Bangalore Hospitals? 

A team of twelve, across both campuses. At Jayanagar: Dr. Kishan Surgical Gastroenterology in both places, Dr. Sanjeev Shetty, Surgical Gastroenterologist and General and Laparoscopic Surgeon, consulting at both campuses; Dr. Srimurthy, Dr. Eswaran Subramaniam, and Dr. Arjun Sampath Kumar, General Surgeons; Dr. Niranjan P and Dr. Anirudh V, General, Laparoscopic, and Bariatric Surgery; Dr. Shashikiran B D, Gastro Surgeon.

At Kengeri: Dr. Srinivas B Kulkarni, General Surgery; Dr. Manu B and Dr. Santhosh K, Consultants in General and Laparoscopic Surgery; Dr. Satish, Surgical Oncology; Dr. Girish Gowda and Dr. Shanmuk Hiremath, Cardiothoracic Vascular Surgeons.
