Our department takes care of various surgical emergencies like acute appendicitis, acute cholecystitis, intestinal obstruction, trauma, abscesses, carbuncles, gangrene and necrotizing fasciitis, patients with sepsis due to surgical conditions. Our department acts as a tertiary referral unit for these emergency cases. Patients are received in our well-equipped casualty department and are promptly operated upon, if required, after stabilization. Peri-operatively, these patients are treated in our intensive care unit or in wards.

Our department initiates and executes various research projects on contemporary topics. Our consultants, students routinely attend national and international conferences to remain abreast with the recent knowledge and to present our work. As a part of training, we have regular academic activities happening in the department.
