We understand that having surgery and spending time in a hospital isn't high on the lists of many people. That's why we strive to offer outpatient procedures and minimally invasive surgeries -- to get you back home as soon as possible. And if you do need to spend time in a hospital, isn't it nice to know you and your family won't have to travel far for quality care?
The team at Odessa Medical Group is committed to offering quality, compassionate care and service to each patient before, during, and after surgery. You can trust your care to the team from preparation to your surgical procedure and recovery.
About General Surgery at Odessa Medical Group
General surgery is a specialty that focuses on your abdominal area which includes:
- Esophagus
- Stomach
- Small and large intestines
- Gallbladder
- Appendix
- Liver
- Pancreas
- Rectum
Odessa Medical Group offers clinical services in these areas. Common, but painful, issues like gallbladder problems, hernias and hemorrhoids can often be taken care of with relatively simple surgeries. And, because we specialize in minimally invasive (laparoscopic) surgical techniques, procedures typically result in less pain, minimal scarring and faster recoveries. In most cases, patients can go home the same day the surgery is performed – allowing them to feel better and get back to their loved ones. For more information, call 432-580-7373.
