Why Manipal Hospitals?
Surgery involves careful planning beforehand, precise technique during the procedure, and recovery afterwards. During these stages, the expert surgeons in our general surgery hospital in Yeshwanthpur, Bangalore, work in tandem with the anaesthesiologists, nurses and rehabilitation staff. We offer:
- A full consultation before your operation when we will explain your diagnosis and why we are recommending surgery.
- A full pre-anaesthetic assessment to make sure you are fit for the procedure and that your anaesthesia can be safely planned.
- Minimally invasive laparoscopic techniques when appropriate (smaller cuts and quicker healing).
- Open surgery for conditions that cannot be treated with keyhole techniques, performed with gentle handling of tissues.
- Coordination with other departments such as gastroenterology or oncology when your condition is multisystemic
- A clear recovery plan explained to you before your operation so you know what to expect in the days and weeks afterwards.

Frequently Asked Questions
Your surgeon will discuss your diagnosis and the rationale for recommending surgery. If non-surgical options are available, we will discuss those. You have the information you need and then make the decision together.
Laparoscopic surgery is performed through small incisions using a camera. Usually it means less pain and less time in hospital. Open surgery uses a larger incision and is indicated when the condition cannot be managed using keyhole techniques alone.
It is contingent upon the process. Some laparoscopic surgeries (like gallbladder removal or hernia repair) let you go home the same day or the next morning. Large open operations usually require a hospital stay of several days.
Prior to the procedure, you will be told when to stop eating and drinking. Your surgeon will provide specific instructions if you are taking blood thinners or diabetes medications. Arrange for a ride home after your surgery.
If you develop a fever or drainage from the incision site or increasing pain, redness or swelling around the wound, call your surgeon. It could be an infection or something else that needs sorting out.
