General Surgery

The thought of having surgery can be overwhelming. Rest assured, Henry Ford Health has been nationally recognized for the expertise and pioneering efforts of its surgeons since 1920. We offer a complete range of surgical procedures available, from joint replacement, organ transplant, and heart and vascular surgery to cosmetic procedures.

Our surgeons frequently publish research testing the effectiveness of the latest surgical approaches. This commitment to research means patients have access to the most advanced treatments.

Minimally invasive and robotic surgery options

Just because you need to have surgery doesn’t mean you need the scars to prove it. Whenever possible, surgery is performed using minimally invasive techniques — where the surgeon operates through three or four tiny openings about the size of buttonholes, while viewing and treating the patient's organs through a TV monitor. Research has shown that these procedures lead to faster and easier recovery times for patients with good clinical outcomes.

In some cases, our surgeons are able to perform some intricate procedures using robotic surgery. Surgeons are able to operate robotics that are designed to handle delicate, minimally invasive operations.

Our dedication to patient safety

Our commitment to patient safety is emphasized in surgery, as it is throughout Henry Ford Health. We continually measure our surgical quality against national benchmarks, and actively participate with national quality initiatives through the government and private organizations to ensure our patients receive the safest and best possible surgical outcomes. We make sure that you are prepared and informed about what to expect during and after your procedure.
