Dr. Dilip Thykkoottathil

Dr. Dilip Thykkoottathil is a Specialist in General Surgery at LLH Hospital in Abu Dhabi, bringing 15 years of clinical experience. He holds an MS degree and is a fellow of the Minimal Access Surgery association (FMAS), reflecting his particular focus on modern, less-invasive surgical techniques.

His practice centres on diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopy and colonoscopy — procedures that allow examination and treatment of the digestive tract through a camera — as well as laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery. He performs a wide range of procedures including repair of hernias (abdominal, diaphragmatic, and others), removal of the gallbladder and appendix, and treatment of benign and cancerous conditions of the colon, stomach, and intestines. He also has expertise in endocrine surgery, which involves treatment of hormone-producing glands.

Dr. Thykkoottathil is a good fit if you need abdominal or digestive surgery and prefer minimally invasive keyhole approaches wherever possible, or if you require diagnostic endoscopy with therapeutic capability.
