The Surgical Services Department is state-of-the-art and designed to handle both minor and major procedures. This facility includes seven inpatient suites, five outpatient suites, two cystoscopy rooms, and two minor procedure rooms. We also offer mobile lithotripsy three times a week.

The outpatient surgery portion includes ENT, ophthalmology, gynecology, urology, and general surgery. The outpatient area also includes a gastrointestinal laboratory. We are currently performing several advanced laparoscopic procedures in the operating room to include laparoscopic colectomies and laparoscopic cholecystectomies, just to name a few.

The Surgical Services unit recently added the world renown da Vinci Robot to its surgical portfolio. The da Vinci Surgical System is a sophisticated robotic platform designed to enable complex surgery using a minimally invasive approach. Powered by state-of-the-art robotic technology, the da Vinci System is designed to scale, filter and seamlessly translate the surgeon's hand movements into more precise movements. For the patient, a da Vinci procedure can offer all the potential benefits of a minimally invasive procedure, including less pain, less blood loss and less need for blood transfusions. Moreover, the da Vinci System can enable a shorter hospital stay, a quicker recovery and faster return to normal daily activities.

In addition to advanced services and equipment, we are also concerned with the human aspect of healthcare. Children are allowed to have a parent or guardian come with them to the operating room until they are asleep. Also, caring, qualified nurses watch over all patients in the Post Anesthesia Care Unit until the patients are ready to be reunited with their family members.
