In 1984, a group of physicians founded Outpatient CareCenter, which focused exclusively on outpatient surgery. Since that time, Outpatient CareCenter has doubled in size and expanded capabilities to include advanced technology. We offer our patients a safe, convenient and comfortable alternative to the hospital. The increased level of individual attention from our staff allows our patients to be released after a procedure to recover in the comfort of their own home. We also have facilities for an overnight stay, should a procedure require extended recovery time.
Our staff is highly trained to handle specific types of care efficiently and with a strong sense of personal commitment. Our unique approach to caring for patients is made possible by our experienced staff that works closely with each doctor to assure his or her surgical preferences are met without exception.
More than 100 physicians have the necessary credentials to perform procedures at our facility. These doctors, required to have admitting privileges at local hospitals before working with us, perform about 13,000 procedures yearly at Outpatient CareCenter.
