Bowel & Abdominal Surgery in Phoenix, AZ

The team at Surgical Professionals brings extensive experience across a variety of surgical procedures involving the stomach, intestines, gallbladder, pancreas, spleen, and appendix. Regardless of whether your condition lends itself to open or laparoscopic surgery, you can rest assured that our attention to detail and expertise puts you in good hands, whether you need a(n):

Appendectomies

Appendicitis can be a terrifying experience, but our team of expert surgeons is ready to resolve your pain and put you on the road to recovery. We will quickly and precisely remove your appendix so that you experience minimal pain and complications. The team at Surgical Professionals in Phoenix has successfully performed this common surgery for many patients over the past 20 years.

Hernia Surgeries in the Phoenix Area

Left untreated, hernias do not go away on their own and may continue to grow. These abdominal wall protrusions sometimes cause pain and discomfort. A common procedure performed by our team, hernia surgery can be done via laparoscopy, open surgery, or robotic-assisted surgery with the Da Vinci System, depending on the specifics of your hernia and what makes the most sense for your long-term health. Procedures include:

  • Inguinal (groin) hernia repair
  • Internal hernia repair
  • Ventral hernia repair
  • Umbilical hernia repair
  • Incisional hernia repair

Gallbladder Surgeries

When gallstones or growths cause distress to the gallbladder, a cholecystectomy is performed to remove the organ, typically through laparoscopic (minimally invasive) techniques. Gallstones affect millions of people, and in most cases, those who have laparoscopic gallbladder surgery can return home the same day.

Colostomy & Colectomy

colectomy is performed to remove all or part of the colon. In some cases, a colostomy — an opening to the outside of the body that excretes stool into a bag — is needed after a colectomy. Considered a major surgery, a colectomy is performed under general anesthesia and can take one to four hours to complete. For a major surgery of this type, you want experienced experts like Surgical Professionals with countless successful surgeries performed over the years.

Gastrectomy

Typically performed to treat cancer of the stomach, a gastrectomy involves removing part or all of the stomach. Depending on the extent of the surgery, our team may opt for an open or laparoscopic procedure. The decision will be made based on the specifics of your situation so we can achieve the best outcomes for your long-term health.

Splenectomy

Surgery to remove the spleen is typically performed when the organ is injured, infected, enlarged, or ruptured. Other conditions that result in spleen surgery include cancer and blood disorders. Surgical Professionals uses the most advanced surgical techniques that mitigate splenectomy surgery risk and improve outcomes.

Pancreatectomy

Partial or distal pancreatectomy is a surgery to remove a tumor from the tail or body of the pancreas. There is usually enough of the pancreas left after surgery to make the hormones (insulin, glucagon) and enzymes that aid digestion.

Breast Surgery in the Phoenix area

The breast surgeries performed by our team are done using the latest techniques and technologies. Breast surgery, one of the most common procedures in the country, is performed to remove cancerous tissue, remove scar tissue, restore the shape of the breast, remove benign lesions, and drain breast abscesses. Other procedures include biopsies (lumpectomies) for chemotherapy medications.

Thyroid Surgery

The team at Surgical Professionals has performed countless thyroid procedures for Phoenix-area patients. A common operation, thyroid surgery treats conditions such as thyroid nodules or goiters, hyperthyroidism (an overactive thyroid), Graves’ disease, and thyroid enlargement.

Oncologic Surgery

Surgical oncology focuses on using surgery to diagnose, stage, and treat cancer. Roughly 1 in 5 people in the U.S. develop skin cancer by the age of 70. Fortunately, early treatment, including surgery, is among our team’s professional oncologic services. Procedures we have experience with include:

AMAZING! Dr. Ju is an awesome Dr he did an emergency surgery on me, he was so calm and professional. He made what could have been a horrible experience so easy. Thank you, Dr. Ju,
I have had 2 surgeries by Dr. Ju, gallbladder removal & a small fatty tissue tumor in my lower back. Both we’re successful with no complications. Dr. Ju is not only highly skilled as a surgeon, but he is also very personal & compassionate.
