We offer local, regional and general anaesthetic surgical services. We only ever undertake GA surgery when absolutely required and our experienced surgeons are able to safely perform many procedures under RA or LA that would traditionally been undertaken under GA. There are, however, certain patients that are not suitable to be safely operated on a weekend day. We will make the trust aware of the exclusion citeria and the patients will be triaged ahead of time to ensure safety.
