The Gastroenterology and General Surgery Department at Coimbatore Kidney Center and Specialties Hospital (CKC&SH) provides advanced diagnostic evaluation and surgical management of a wide spectrum of gastrointestinal, hepatobiliary, endocrine, and abdominal disorders. The department specializes in both elective and emergency procedures, addressing conditions ranging from gallbladder and biliary tract disease to complex colorectal, pancreatic, and abdominal wall pathologies.
The surgical repertoire includes laparoscopic and open cholecystectomy, laparoscopic and open appendectomy, laparotomy and subtotal colectomy, colostomy and abdominal perineal resection with permanent colostomy, excision of anal fissures, umbilical and inguinoscrotal hernia repair, mesh repair and hernioplasty, hemithyroidectomy, and excision of parathyroid adenomas. In addition, the department manages complex scenarios through laparotomic common bile duct (CBD) exploration, retroperitoneal abscess drainage, gallstone removal, lymph node biopsy, and wide-spectrum abdominal surgeries, ensuring precision and adherence to the highest surgical safety standards.
The department is led by Dr. S. Radhakrishnan, MBBS, MD, FRCS, an accomplished surgeon whose extensive expertise and international training have established CKC as a trusted center for advanced gastroenterology and surgical care. His leadership emphasizes evidence-based practice, minimally invasive techniques, and integration of modern perioperative protocols, thereby improving surgical outcomes, reducing postoperative morbidity, and enhancing recovery.
