Slocum Surgery Center Provides Specialized Surgical Care
At our state-of-the-art Slocum Surgery Center, located within our practice facility, your health, safety, and comfort are our priorities.
“There are several benefits to undergoing treatment in an ambulatory surgery center,” explains Dr. Daniel C. Fitzpatrick, surgeon at Slocum Center for Orthopedics & Sports Medicine. “Unlike a hospital, which provides all types of surgeries, our ambulatory surgery center provides very specific and specialized orthopedic procedures.”
The doctors and staff in the Slocum Surgery Center prepare for and assist with the same types of orthopedic and sports medicine surgeries on a regular basis, allowing patients to receive much more specialized, timely, effective, and affordable treatment. This specialized training and experience, from nurses, doctors, and anesthesiologists, contributes to patients’ shorter recovery times and decreased nausea from anesthesia.
Recent advancements in technology and improvements in minimally invasive surgical techniques have also provided Slocum Center for Orthopedics & Sports Medicine surgeons with the opportunity to perform procedures that are traditionally performed in hospitals at the Slocum Surgery Center instead. This allows patients to return home from surgery and begin their recoveries earlier and also reduces costs.
