Your Surgeon in Vevey

Dr. Arturo Lopez Sivilat, surgeon at the Centre Médical Gare de Vevey, offers surgical consultations to treat a wide range of conditions.

Surgery is a medical specialty aimed at diagnosing and treating diseases, injuries, and malformations through technical medical procedures. This discipline covers the skin, organs, blood vessels, as well as the digestive and lymphatic systems.

The surgeon sees patients in consultation in Vevey but does not perform surgical operations there.

Surgical consultations in Vevey

The purpose of a surgical consultation is to identify the condition affecting you and to propose an appropriate treatment plan. To do so, the surgeon discusses with you the causes and characteristics of your condition, then performs a clinical examination and reviews your medical history.

If necessary, the diagnosis may be supplemented by additional tests, such as blood work or imaging, carried out by our paramedical team or external partners.

Once the situation is clarified, the surgeon presents the treatment options and their modalities. If surgery is required, he prepares you by answering all your questions and, if necessary, providing recommendations in preparation for the operation (weight loss, smoking cessation, etc.).

Finally, a consultation may also take place after surgery to monitor progress, check healing, and adjust treatment if needed.
