General and Gastrointestinal Surgery

About General and Gastrointestinal Surgery

Brown University Health board certified general and gastrointestinal surgeons are experts in the diagnosis and care of patients with diseases affecting the abdomen and digestive tract. They provide patient-centered and personalized care, and the surgical outcomes of our patients exceed national standards of excellence and safety.

We provide state-of-the-art general and gastrointestinal surgical services for inpatients and outpatients. We offer consultative, diagnostic and therapeutic services, and utilize state-of-the-art surgical techniques, such as robotic and laparoscopic surgical approaches.  These techniques involve a smaller incision than traditional “open” surgeries, resulting in less trauma to nearby healthy tissue and can lessen your post-op pain and scarring, as well as speed recovery. Your care team will decide on the best surgical approach for you.
