Dr. Eyad Sharif Raya is a Specialist in General Surgery with over three decades of clinical experience across Syria, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. He has developed deep expertise in both emergency and planned surgical care, with particular strength in minimally invasive keyhole techniques that reduce recovery time and scarring.
Dr. Raya's clinical practice covers a wide range of general surgical conditions: emergency abdominal trauma, perforated ulcers, appendicitis, gallbladder removal, hernia repairs, colorectal conditions including haemorrhoids and pilonidal sinus disease, thyroid surgery, and breast lumps. He performs many procedures using laparoscopic (keyhole) methods where possible to minimize patient recovery time. He also manages complex cases requiring open surgery, including major abdominal trauma and bowel resections.
He is a good fit for patients needing emergency or urgent abdominal surgery, those seeking laparoscopic alternatives to open surgery, and anyone with colorectal or thyroid concerns who values an experienced surgeon with three decades of hands-on practice across the Middle East.
Special interests: laparoscopic techniques, trauma and emergency surgery, bowel and colorectal conditions.
