Gastrointestinal Surgeon | Gastrointestinal Surgery Doctors in India

A gastrointestinal surgeon is a specialist in surgical matters carried out on the organs of the digestive system with the aim to treat or improve the prognosis of these pathologies.

Gastrointestinal surgeons perform GI surgery to treat benign (noncancerous) conditions that affect the digestive tract, which includes the esophagus, stomach, intestines, appendix, gallbladder, pancreas, liver, and bile ducts.

The GI surgery removes tumors or any damaged part from the gastrointestinal tract, such as intestine or pancreas. This GI surgery is also used to solve problems like inflammatory bowel disease, severe acid reflux, hernia, and many other chronic diseases

A gastroenterologist is not a surgeon. Gastroenterologists do not carry out surgical operations. But they work with gastrointestinal surgeons, who perform surgical procedures to repair or remove parts of the digestive system.
