Minimally invasive options
Our surgeons are recognized for their expertise in minimally invasive procedures. By using miniature cameras with microscopes, tiny fiber-optic flashlights and high-definition monitors, surgeons can perform surgery through small incisions that take only a few stitches to close. Smaller incisions result in less blood loss, less pain and a quicker recovery.
Day Surgery
Many surgeries once requiring overnight hospital stays can be performed as day surgery in our Day Surgery unit. Patients return home that day to recover without a hospital admission. Our day surgery unit performs surgeries in a variety of specialties including eye, gynecologic, orthopedic, ear, nose and throat, among others. Our goal is to provide our patients and their loved ones with individual attention and convenience in a caring environment.
