The surgical center at D.I.S.C. specializes in spine and orthopaedic outpatient surgeries and pain management procedures. Designed specifically to accommodate complex cases, our surgical center is one of the most technologically advanced in the country, exceeding the standards found in major hospitals. Our highly skilled, advanced fellowship trained surgeons use leading edge, advanced arthroscopic and endoscopic techniques which enables them to reduce pain and provide a faster recovery for our patients undergoing minimally invasive microscopic spine and orthopaedic procedures.
Set in our intimate environment, we offer each patient a very personalized surgical experience. Once the procedure is complete, our recovery rooms allow the patient to fully and quickly recuperate from surgery in a private setting equipped with the most advanced monitoring equipment and nursing staff only feet away. Often, patients return home within hours of surgery. We are proud of our 98% positive patient satisfaction rating for our surgical center and the care we provide.
Reducing Infections
The entire staff of the surgical center is committed to providing unparalleled, personalized care in a friendly professional environment. With patient safety as our primary goal, we have taken the additional step of installing a specialized 100% HEPA air filtration system, utilized throughout the entire center and its ultra clean operating rooms. In addition, we have UVC (ultraviolet) emitters that destroy incoming airborne germs, bacteria and microorganisms, which puts our standard of care on par with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta. By combining these measures with strict hygiene protocols, D.I.S.C. has had zero surgical (MRSA) infections after three years of operation and over 3,000 procedures.
State of the Art Technology
A 7,200 sq. ft. state-of-the-art facility, our outpatient surgical center was custom designed using the most advanced technology and current innovations available. Through a partnership with Smith & Nephew, a global leader in advanced medical devices, endoscopy and technology, D.I.S.C. developed a prototypical operating room of the future. Linking surgeon and staff with an immediately accessible, centralized flow of information, our system streamlines the surgical process as never before. With the touch of a button the surgical team can optimize equipment, control multimedia and configure the room to the specific desires of a particular surgeon. This allows for more efficiency in the OR, less time for procedures and overall better patient care. As a result, the minimally invasive surgical techniques preformed on this site allow patients to return to their normal lifestyle quickly and safely.
Patient Safety & High Quality Care
In order to provide the highest level of care, our staff has been specially selected for their experience and knowledge of spine and orthopedic procedures. Dedicated to the health and well being of our patients, our staff and center provide a level of care, which often exceeds that of a typical Intensive Care Unit. Patients receive personal nursing care during their brief stay and with a very high nurse to patient ratio, assistance is never more than a few feet away. This reduces the risk of errors and provides for a continuity of care that proactively aids in the initial recovery process. We are extremely proud our 98% positive patient satisfaction surveys.
