General and Laparoscopic Surgery

NMC's general surgeons come from strong and solid regional and international training backgrounds. Many have additional niche skills in minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery, abdominal wall reconstruction, hepatobiliary surgery, colorectal procedures and emergency abdominal care.

Their experience spans the a to z of daily surgical needs and covers everything from basic abscess drainage, wound suturing, ingrown toenail removal and haemorrhoid management, through to more advanced operations such as gallbladder removal, hernia repair and stomach or bowel surgery.

All our doctors are commended for their communication style and bedside manners. The consultation process is on par with international standards and are personal, with explanations being clear and surgical recommendations tailored to each individual. All our treatments and procedures also match best practice worldwide. Whether patients are visiting our facilities to meet a general surgery doctor in Dubai or a laparoscopic surgeon in Sharjah, or a simple GI visit across any Emirate, patients can expect a thoughtful, respectful and reassuring experience from start to finish.
