Outpatient Services

Same-Day Surgeries & Medical Procedures

An outpatient procedure is a surgery where a patient checks into and is discharged from the hospital on the same day. Most minimally invasive surgeries are outpatient procedures. A minimally invasive surgery is one where the surgeon does not need to make large incisions to perform the operation.

Our operating rooms feature state-of-the-art technology and monitoring equipment to facilitate safer, more efficient surgery and anesthesia services. From the moment you arrive for your operation, a member of our team will guide you to where you need to be.

We offer the following outpatient therapy and surgery services:

  • Iron infusions
  • YAG laser treatments
  • Blood transfusions
  • Wound care
  • IV hydration
  • Catheter care
  • Needle directed biopsies
  • IV antibiotic therapy
  • PICC lines

Some things to keep in mind for the day of your surgery:

  • Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing
  • Do not wear any makeup or jewelry
  • Do not put any lotions or creams on your skin
  • Many procedures demand that you do not eat or drink for 12 hours beforehand- this includes water, gum, and hard candies
  • If your procedure involves anesthesia, make sure you have a ride to and from the hospital as you will not be able to operate a vehicle for 24 hours

Please contact us if you have any questions about your procedure. Our team will be happy to answer any of your questions or provide you with a reminder of what we need from you for the day of the procedure.
