What should surgeons know?

Lower infection rates – Each of our seven OR’s has a C-arm fluoroscopy, eliminating equipment delays and reducing the potential for cross-contamination between rooms. Our suites use a unique air curtain system to improve the sterile field during surgery. These features allow us to achieve infection rates of one-tenth the US hospital average.
Low staff turnover – Our operating room staff has one of the lowest turnover rates in the area, meaning the OR staff will be well-trained and ready to work when you arrive. After surgery, our hospital’s nurses have the time to really care for patients.
Respect for your time and energy – One of our top priorities is keeping everything on schedule, so surgery starts on time and turnover between cases averages 15 minutes.
Better communication – Our streamline scheduling system means less red tape for you and your staff. And while your patients are in our hospital, you’ll get regular updates on their progress.
