Best Surgery Doctor in Chittagong
Most abdominal surgery no longer needs a long incision. Laparoscopic surgery, often called keyhole surgery, uses incisions of roughly half a centimeter to one and a half centimeters. A laparoscope, a thin tube carrying a camera and light, goes through one of them and sends a live view of the inside of the abdomen to a monitor. The instruments go through the others.
The result for the patient is less pain after the operation, a shorter hospital stay, a faster return to work, and smaller scars. Gallbladder removal, appendicectomy, hernia repair, colorectal resection, and several cancer operations are all done this way now.
Apollo Imperial Hospitals runs General, Laparoscopic, Colorectal and Breast Surgery with ten highly qualified surgeons. Their details are set out below.

What Supports the Operation
A surgeon is one part of a surgical result. Apollo Imperial Hospitals runs 14 modern operation theatres with dedicated theatres by specialty, staffed by anaesthesiologists, surgical technologists, and trained theatre nurses.
Our Infection Control Department and Central Sterile Supply Department (CSSD) handle instrument sterilization and surveillance, which is what keeps surgical site infection rates down. Post-operative patients who need intensive monitoring go to a separate Surgical ICU, staffed for post-operative complications, within our 66-bed critical care department.
Blood bank support covers red cell concentrate, apheresis platelets, and fresh frozen plasma, which matters in major resections and in trauma.
Before You Decide on Surgery
Ask three questions at your consultation: whether the operation can be done laparoscopically, what the expected recovery time is, and what happens if you delay. A good surgeon will answer all three plainly, including the cases where waiting is reasonable.
Bring every previous report, scan, and prescription with you. Bring the list of medicines you take, especially blood thinners, since these need managing before any operation.
Book an Appointment
The surgery OPD runs from 9 am to 9 pm, with individual consultant schedules. Appointments are booked by phone or in person as a first consultation, follow-up consultation, or report check consultation. Admission for surgery happens after OPD consultation or through emergency, and our team explains the likely charges and any applicable package before admission.
