About general surgeons in Dhaka

A General Surgeon (general surgery specialist) diagnoses and surgically treats diseases of the abdomen and soft tissues. In Bangladesh, patients most often see a general surgeon for appendicitis, gallstones (pittothalir pathor), all types of hernia (inguinal, umbilical, incisional), piles/haemorrhoids, anal fissure and fistula, thyroid swelling (goitre), breast lumps, lipomas and skin cysts, and abscesses or wounds that need draining or surgery. They also manage diabetic foot ulcers and many acute surgical emergencies. In a typical consultation, the surgeon takes your history, examines the affected area, and reviews or orders investigations such as ultrasound, blood tests, or endoscopy. If surgery is needed, they explain the procedure, whether it can be done by laparoscopy ("keyhole" surgery) or open operation, the risks, recovery time, and approximate cost. You should see a general surgeon for any persistent abdominal pain, a lump or swelling, bleeding from the back passage, a non-healing wound, or when a GP or medicine specialist refers you for a possible operation. Early consultation often means a simpler, safer surgery.

When should you see a general surgeon in Dhaka?

See a General Surgeon if you have persistent or severe abdominal pain, a new lump or swelling anywhere on the body, bleeding from the back passage, a wound that will not heal, or if your doctor has referred you for a possible operation. For sudden severe belly pain with fever or vomiting, go to a hospital emergency immediately.

Frequently asked questions about general surgeons in Dhaka

How much does a General Surgeon consultation cost in Dhaka?

In Dhaka, a general surgeon's private chamber consultation fee is usually around 500 to 1,000 BDT for most consultants. Senior surgeons, professors, or those seen at large private hospitals such as Square, Evercare, Labaid or Popular may charge 1,000 to 2,000 BDT or more. Report fees, investigations like ultrasound or blood tests, and the operation itself are charged separately, so it is wise to ask about the full estimate during your first visit.

How do I book a General Surgeon in Dhaka and what should I expect?

You can book a general surgeon in Dhaka by calling the chamber or hospital directly, or online through ChamberBD where the doctor uses our system. Bring any previous reports, ultrasound or endoscopy results, and a list of your medicines. At the visit the surgeon will take your history, examine the area, and may order tests. If an operation is advised, they will explain whether it can be done by laparoscopy or open surgery, the recovery time, and the cost before you decide.

Who is the best General Surgeon in Dhaka?

The best general surgeon in Dhaka for you is one who is properly qualified (an FCPS or MS in surgery), experienced in your specific problem, and works at a reputable hospital or clinic. There is no single best doctor for everyone, so look at the surgeon's qualifications, how many similar operations they perform, whether they offer laparoscopic options, and patient feedback. Browse the verified surgeon profiles in our Dhaka directory to compare credentials, chambers and fees before you choose.

Can I consult a General Surgeon online or by telemedicine in Dhaka?

Yes. Many general surgeons in Dhaka now offer online or telemedicine consultations, which are useful for reviewing reports, getting a second opinion, post-operative follow-up, or deciding whether you need an in-person visit. However, surgery and any condition needing a physical examination — such as a lump, hernia, abscess or acute abdominal pain — will require you to visit the chamber or hospital in person. For sudden severe pain or an emergency, go straight to a hospital rather than waiting for an online appointment.
