Outpatient Surgery
When you need outpatient surgery, you want an expert surgical team and nurses who can help you get ready to go home.

At SMDC Medical Center, our specialty surgical teams regularly work together. While they’re well-versed in common outpatient procedures, they know a surgery is never routine for them -- and especially not for you.

Our surgeons and teams are trained to work with cutting-edge technologies, such as laparoscopes and lasers that allow minimally invasive procedures. That means you spend less time in our hospital (formerly Miller-Dwan Medical Center) and recover more quickly in your own home.

Because our focus is same-day surgery, our surgical teams are rarely interrupted by emergency cases. That means we can stick more closely to your scheduled time.

At SMDC Medical Center, our goal is to get you back home, but if you need to stay longer, you’re easily admitted to a nearby floor staffed by post-op nurses. And when you go home, our nurses are just a phone call away and we’ll check on your recovery the next day.
