Surgical Services at Chestnut Hill

Pre-Surgical Evaluations and Follow-Up Care


Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center offers surgical consultations and follow-up care at our Chestnut Hill location. Here, our team evaluates new patients before surgery and provides post-operative care for patients who have had surgery at BIDMC.

Our Chestnut Hill clinic supports patients across several surgical specialties, including:

  • General Surgery: Hernias, gallbladder disease, cysts and benign (non-cancerous) masses, and spleen conditions.
  • Colon & Rectal Surgery: Care for conditions of the colon, rectum, and anus.
  • Thoracic Surgery: Conditions of the chest, including lungs and esophagus.
  • Neurosurgery: Spine disorders, brain and spinal tumors, epilepsy, movement disorders, and related conditions.

Some patients with the following conditions may also be appropriate for care in Chestnut Hill:

  • Pancreatitis
  • Pancreatic cysts
  • Gastric tumors

We can advise you about the best location for your care when you call to schedule an appointment.
