The Path to Health

 Our patient-centered philosophy involves educating patients about their  treatment options; whether it is nonsurgical, interventional or  surgical. Our staff members are compassionate, caring and considerate  throughout the diagnostic and treatment process. It is our goal to  return patient function while improving long-term quality of life. 

Ambulatory Surgery Centers, or "ASCs" are health care facilities that  cater to patients having a procedure that will not require any  overnight stay in a hospital, but is still too intensive to be performed  in the physician's office.  The patients typically arrive for  admission, have surgery performed in a full-service operating room with  specialized staff, recover safely and quickly from anesthesia and return  home within hours of their surgery. ASCs are an alternative to a  hospital-based setting with many advantages including:

• Provide a cost effective and efficient environment with a highly trained and specialized staff. 
  
• The infection rates are minimal without the additional hospital exposure.
  
• Surgeons have more control over the surgical environment resulting in less time spent at the facility and a quicker recovery.
