The first civil surgical service was formed after the establishment of the District Hospital in 1881. Further development of surgery in Niš was related to the formation of the General State Hospital in 1910.

General Surgery Clinic is a highly specialized health institution which provides services in the field of general, abdominal, thoracic, endocrine and breast surgery. Medical doctors from this clinic are specialized in particular surgical branches, so that there are teams of surgeons dealing with gastric, duodenal and small intestine surgery, colorectal surgery and proctology, hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery, endocrine surgery, breast surgery etc. Polytraumatized patients are also taken care of at the General Surgery Clinic. Since some new surgical procedures have been introduced lately, this clinic is one of the most successful in the country.

Daily work of clinical pharmacologists has significantly improved the administration of medicines, which has also contributed to the recognition and removal of adverse effects of medicines.
