General Surgery
Surgery is a uniquely personal type of care – and at Liberty Hospital, it’s also uniquely advanced. General surgery is a surgical subspecialty that treats conditions of the abdomen and digestive tract, as well as skin and other soft tissues. At Liberty Hospital, our board-certified general surgeons and dedicated care teams combine the premier patient experience you deserve with the exceptional outcomes you need. From pre-surgery testing to post-surgery rehabilitation, we deliver comprehensive surgical care as advanced as it is personalized. Talk to your physician about a referral or call today.

The power of robotic-assisted surgery
Robotic technology is revolutionizing surgery with enhanced precision that leads to better outcomes. At Liberty Hospital, our general surgeons use the da Vinci® Surgical System for many procedures. For our patients, that means smaller incisions that result in these key benefits and more:
- Faster recovery
- Less pain
- Reduced scarring
- Quicker return to normal daily activities
