Dr. Praveen Garg – Gallbladder Stone & Laparoscopic Gallbladder Surgery
Gallbladder disease is an important area of Dr. Praveen Garg’s general surgical practice. He evaluates patients with gallstones, recurrent gallbladder attacks and inflammation of the gallbladder, which can cause severe pain in the upper or right side of the abdomen, nausea, vomiting, bloating or discomfort after meals. Repeated symptoms require proper evaluation, particularly because gallstones can sometimes lead to complications involving the gallbladder, bile ducts or pancreas.
When surgery is required, Dr. Garg performs laparoscopic gallbladder removal (laparoscopic cholecystectomy)through small incisions. For suitable patients, this minimally invasive approach generally allows earlier mobilisation and a shorter recovery than conventional open surgery. At East Delhi Medical Centre, he provides evaluation and definitive surgical treatment for patients with symptomatic gallstones and related gallbladder conditions.
Dr. Praveen Garg – Hernia & Abdominal Wall Surgery
Dr. Praveen Garg also treats inguinal, umbilical and other abdominal wall hernias. A hernia commonly appears as a swelling or bulge that becomes more noticeable while standing, coughing, lifting or straining. While some hernias initially cause little discomfort, others progressively become painful or begin interfering with work, exercise and everyday movement. Sudden severe pain, vomiting or a swelling that no longer reduces requires urgent medical assessment.
Treatment depends on the location and type of hernia, the severity of symptoms and the patient’s overall health. Where appropriate, Dr. Garg performs laparoscopic hernia repair, with the aim of securely repairing the abdominal wall defect while minimising surgical trauma. His experience in both general and minimally invasive surgery allows each case to be assessed individually before deciding whether observation or planned surgical repair is appropriate.
Dr. Praveen Garg – Appendix & Acute Abdominal Surgery
As a general surgeon at East Delhi Medical Centre, Dr. Praveen Garg also manages appendicitis and other acute abdominal conditions that may require timely surgical intervention. Appendicitis can begin as vague abdominal discomfort before developing into more persistent or severe pain, often accompanied by nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite or fever. Prompt diagnosis is important because untreated inflammation can progress to perforation and infection within the abdomen.
When appendicitis is confirmed and surgery is indicated, laparoscopic appendicectomy can be performed in suitable patients. Dr. Garg’s role extends from identifying the cause of acute abdominal symptoms to determining when surgical intervention is necessary and managing subsequent recovery. This provides patients in Shahdara and nearby East Delhi areas with access to experienced surgical assessment for both planned procedures and urgent abdominal conditions.
