As a service under the Division of Trauma and Surgical Critical Care, Emergency General Surgery (EGS) serves a patient population who requires a timely assessment and surgical intervention in many cases. These patients may have a new issue such as an infected or ruptured appendix or they can have a complication from a previous procedure. Regardless of the origin, Dr. Oliver Gunter and the entire EGS team are available 24/7 to quickly and accurately treat these patients.Click here for more on the EGS service.
