Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about General & Laparoscopic Surgery at SKS Hospital, Mathura — appointments, tests, insurance and emergencies.
How do I choose the best general surgeon in Mathura?
Look for an MS or DNB (General Surgery) qualified surgeon with experience in your operation, at a hospital with ICU, blood bank, and 24×7 emergency on site. A good surgeon explains why you need surgery and what the alternatives are.
Can Ayushman card be used for surgery at SKS Hospital?
Cover depends on the package and clinical indication. Visit the insurance desk with your Ayushman card and photo ID, or call +91 86799 11029.
Is laparoscopic surgery better than open surgery?
For many operations, yes: smaller cuts, less pain, and a faster recovery. Open surgery is still safer in some cases, and your surgeon will explain which suits you.
Is hernia surgery urgent?
Not always, but a hernia doesn’t go away on its own. If it becomes painful, hard or won’t go back in, it’s an emergency.
How long will I stay after gallbladder surgery?
Most people go home one or two days after laparoscopic gallbladder surgery.
What are the warning signs of appendicitis?
Pain that moves to the lower right side of the abdomen, fever, vomiting, and loss of appetite. Come to emergency rather than waiting.
Do you treat piles with lasers?
Yes, where suitable. Many piles improve with diet and medicines; laser or other surgery is considered when they don’t.
Should I see a surgeon or a medicine doctor first?
If you’re unsure, start with the best medicine doctor in Mathura you trust or a general care doctor in Mathura. They will refer you to a surgeon if an operation could help.
When can I return to work after surgery?
After keyhole surgery, many people return to desk work in one to two weeks; heavy work may need four to six weeks.
How should I prepare for a planned operation?
Get the advised tests done, tell us about all your medicines, stop blood thinners only if your doctor says so, and don’t eat or drink for the time advised before surgery.
