General Surgery

Emphasis on prevention and painless treatment

Saint Anastasios Clinic (Ayios Anastasios Clinic) offers specialized services in General Surgery, Laser Surgery and Minimally Invasive Surgery.

The hospital offers surgical outpatient clinics on most days. You simply call reception at 22764444 and book an appointment.

​In our hospital, we consider an operation as the last resort. Emphasis is given to prevention and to treatments without an operation, wherever this is possible. A surgeon is perhaps the most appropriate professional to help you avoid surgery.

​A lot of patients suffering with breast lumps, breast cysts, haemorrhoids (hemorrhoids), anal fissures etc can be treated conservatively, which means without an operation. Some patients who present with hernias may also not need an operation. Each patient is unique and a dedicated personalized approach is followed for each one.

​If an operation is necessary, all methods of surgery are discussed with you, including Minimally Invasive, Open and Laser surgery and a treatment plan is agreed with you.

​In addition, it is not always mandatory that you should undergo spinal, epidural or general anaesthesia. On many occasions, the operation could also be performed by using only local anaesthesia and our surgical team has special expertise in this. Examples include many hernia operations, some breast operations and most lipoma operations.

​Saint Anastasios Clinic has a very well-equipped operating theatre and also a specialized surgical section. Treating surgical patients segregated from other patients, helps decrease the risk for nosocomial (hospital-acquired) infections and also increases efficiency in surgical care. The proximity of the operating theatre and all the facilities to the patient rooms, also increases safety.

​Most of the patient rooms in the clinic are equipped with private showers, wash basins and toilets. They are fully air-conditioned and equipped with a television and other facilities to make hospital stay as pleasant an experience as possible.
