When to consult a general surgeon
General surgeons operate on the abdomen and its contents, and on hernias, gallstones, appendicitis, breast lumps, thyroid swellings and skin lesions. Most people reach one on referral after a scan or a physician's assessment rather than by booking directly. A surgical opinion is not the same as a decision to operate — many consultations end in watchful waiting.
- A hernia or lump that is growing
- Gallstones, or recurring pain in the upper right abdomen
- A breast or thyroid swelling needing assessment
- Piles, fissure or fistula
- A second opinion before planned surgery
