- Flexible ureterorenoscopy (URS)
- Ureteroscopy with laser lithotripsy for stone removal
- Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL)

In gastroenterology, Dr. Devaprashanth M focuses on surgical treatments. The department covers general surgery, laparoscopic techniques, and proctology. Specialists also use laser technologies for gastrointestinal procedures. An accredited surgical facility model allows eligible patients to undergo same-day procedures without full hospitalization.
Diagnostic and Surgical Technology
The hospital uses robotic-assisted surgery for greater precision during complex operations. Diagnostic services include 3T MRI and abdominal CT scans. These tools help medical teams move from diagnosis to treatment with minimal delay. Critical care units are specialized by age group, including the NICU and PICU for pediatric patients.
