Inpatient procedures
Inpatient surgeries are performed in our surgical unit followed by recovery on our fourth floor medical/surgical unit. We welcome family members and visitors as you recover and offer personalized care during this time of healing.
Outpatient procedures
Most surgical procedures don't require lengthy hospital stays. In fact, many require no overnight stay at all (often called day, outpatient or same-day surgeries). When possible, we offer outpatient procedures to help patients get back to their lives as quickly as possible.
