What Is General Surgery
and When Do You Need It?
In medicine, general surgery is a broad term that covers all diseases that affect you internally. It means treating abdominal, gastrointestinal, and a wide range of other issues through surgery. It also includes hernia surgery, gallbladder stones, appendicitis, hemorrhoids, lumps in the thyroid gland, and varicose veins. It is the most common form of surgery for patients and also tackles all medical emergencies that can only be managed surgically and not with any other treatment form.
General surgery no longer involves making big incisions and being hospitalized for several days. It has advanced and uses mini cameras to operate on your body’s internal organs through small pinholes. Surgeons call it keyhole surgery. For the right patient, it means far less strain on the body and a much easier recovery.
General Surgery Procedures by Dr. Muhammad Waseem Anwar
From emergency care to planned procedures, Dr. Muhammad Waseem Anwar delivers complete surgical solutions using the gentlest and most modern techniques available.

Hernia Surgery
(Inguinal, Umbilical, Incisional)
A hernia shows up when part of your bowel or fatty tissue pushes through a weak spot in the abdominal wall. It results in a lump formation and causes discomfort. For hernias, Dr. Muhammad Waseem Anwar uses laparoscopic mesh to lower the risk of the hernia returning.

Gallbladder Surgery
(Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy)
Sharp pain experienced underneath the right rib cage area after eating fatty food usually means gallstones. The standard and safe treatment for these painful stomach cramps is to remove the gallbladder surgically.

Appendicitis Surgery
(Laparoscopic Appendectomy)
Severe pain originating from the navel area and shifting towards the right side is usually due to appendicitis. In an emergency, Dr. Muhammad Waseem Anwar performs laparoscopic surgery to remove your appendix and relieve the pain before it causes a serious complication such as a burst appendix.

Piles and Anorectal Surgery
Symptoms like bleeding, burning sensation, itching, or painful lumps while passing stools make your day-to-day activities embarrassing and painful. Piles treatment, fissure, and fistula surgery are done discreetly, skillfully, and safely to ensure lasting relief from pain and an early return to your normal activities.

Thyroid Surgery
(Goiter and Thyroid Nodules)
The surgery to remove the thyroid gland, performed by Dr. Muhammad Waseem Anwar, is performed safely, with care taken not to damage your delicate vocal cord nerves, preserving parathyroid function, and leaving a small, neatly placed incision.

Varicose Veins
& Hydrocele Surgery
Swollen and painful leg veins or a hydrocele can cause constant pain and heaviness. Dr. Muhammad Waseem Anwar provides you with relief from pain and discomfort from such problems easily.
Laparoscopic Surgery
Smaller Cuts, Better Healing
Why make a big and painful incision when you can have the procedure performed through small incisions? Dr. Muhammad Waseem Anwar is an expert in laparoscopic surgery. By using a small incision, he inserts a mini-camera and special tools in order to get a clear view of your organs on a high-definition screen. He works through small openings, so there’s less trauma to the muscle and tissue around the area.
- Small Cuts, Minimal Scarring: The small incisions heal quickly without leaving behind any large scars on your body.
- Less Pain After Surgery: You will suffer from less postoperative pain as your abdominal muscles will not be cut open for the operation.
- Back Home in 24 to 48 Hours: The major laparoscopic surgeries involve very little time at the hospital, and thus you can go back home after surgery.
- Quick Return to Work and Family: Go back to work and family within a few days as compared to waiting for several weeks.
- Lower Risk of Wound Infection: There is a lower risk that the small wound will bleed or get infected.
