The Department of Surgical Oncology at Patel Hospital specializes in the surgical treatment of cancer, offering advanced procedures and comprehensive care for patients with various types of malignancies.
The Department of Surgical Oncology at Patel Hospital is dedicated to providing comprehensive and personalized surgical care for patients diagnosed with cancer. Our team of skilled surgical oncologists collaborates closely with medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, pathologists, radiologists, and other specialists to ensure integrated and effective treatment plans tailored to each patient's specific needs.
Our expertise covers a wide range of areas within surgical oncology. We perform various cancer surgeries, including tumor resections, lymph node dissections, and complex reconstructions, utilizing advanced techniques such as minimally invasive surgery, laparoscopy, and robotic surgery whenever appropriate. These approaches offer benefits like smaller incisions, faster recovery times, and reduced post-operative discomfort for our patients.
In specific cancer types, our surgical oncologists excel in breast cancer surgery, performing breast-conserving surgeries, mastectomies, sentinel lymph node biopsies, and oncoplastic breast reconstruction procedures. For gastrointestinal cancers, we conduct surgeries such as bowel resections, hepatectomies, and Whipple procedures. Head and neck cancer surgeries, urological cancer surgeries, gynecologic cancer surgeries, and sarcoma surgeries are also part of our specialized services.
Our focus extends beyond surgical procedures. We prioritize patient education, support, and comprehensive cancer management. We ensure that patients receive thorough pre-operative evaluations, clear explanations about their treatment options, and compassionate post-operative care. Our goal is to achieve optimal outcomes, improve quality of life, and provide holistic support to patients and their families throughout their cancer journey.
At Patel Hospital, the Department of Surgical Oncology is committed to advancing surgical techniques, embracing innovation, and delivering excellence in cancer care. We strive to make a positive impact on the lives of our patients by providing compassionate, evidence-based, and multidisciplinary surgical oncology services.
