Our team of surgeons and anesthesiologists are trained in many major surgeries.

We offer excellent surgical diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up care to our surrounding communities. Often, you may have surgery without having to stay overnight in the hospital.

Our General Surgery team includes general surgeons, nurses, anesthesiologists, and experienced support staff. We are equipped with 2 complete operating room suites.

Our local and regional surgeons provide a wide range of surgical services. Our surgical specialties include:

  • Endoscopy
  • Gynecology
  • Ophthalmology
  • Oral surgery
  • Orthopedics
  • Podiatry
  • Urology

Ambulatory surgery

We provide many surgeries without requiring an overnight hospital stay. Rapid advances in surgical knowledge, technique, and technology provide significant benefits for our patients. Decreased risk and less pain allow us to perform more surgeries on an outpatient basis. This has made it possible for our patients to recover sooner and go home the same day.

Typical same-day procedures include:

  • Eye surgery
  • Gynecological procedures
  • Hernia repair
  • Knee and shoulder arthroscopy
  • Skin biopsies
  • Urological procedures
