surgeries
- 1Plural of surgery.
The clinic schedules most surgeries for early in the morning.
She recovered well after both surgeries last spring.
Note
A plural that only some uses of the noun welcome. In the operating-room sense, surgery is usually uncountable (she needs surgery), so the plural counts separate procedures: two surgeries in one year. The British senses count freely. These are a doctor's office, its consulting hours, or a politician's sessions where people wait to be seen. So a British town can have several surgeries without anyone being operated on.
