Other Services

Dr Florica specialises in a range of laparoscopic abdominal surgery such as gallbladder, bowel (colo-rectal), hernia and anti-reflux.

Based on our increasing experience with laparoscopic surgery we strongly believe that the advantages this method confers to both the surgical procedure and to patient outcomes make it a far superior preference to all but the minority of procedures.

Our best results based on our practice audit, are in laparoscopic gallbladder surgery where we achieved 99% of our procedures through keyhole surgery regardless of the severity of the disease or patient health status, with no surgical technical complications.

In our bariatric practice we have performed laparoscopic gastric banding system insertion with no major or minor technical complications and our results are consistent with best practice standards.

:: Colorectal Surgery

What is colorectal surgery?

Colorectal surgery addresses to a range of colonic and rectal problems such as diverticulitis, inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn's and ulcerative colitis), colonic and rectal tumours, rectal prolapse, volvulus, appendicitis, etc.

Traditionally this type of surgery requires a large abdominal incision, followed often by a lengthy recovery.

Laparoscopic or minimally invasive surgery allows the procedure to be performed through several small cuts. This technique is associated with less blood loss and less postoperative pain, shorter hospital stay and quicker recovery, faster return to work and better cosmetic results.
