This surgery center’s staff is professional while putting the patient at ease from check-in to release. The nurses get you prepared and the doctors and anesthesiologists talk with you before your procedure and answer your questions and ease any fears you may have. Depending on the procedure, many will have results before you leave. Nobody likes to have to have surgeries, but if necessary, this is the place to have it knowing you’re in good hands from start to finish.

The nurses were great, the care was above outstanding and Dr. Turtel is the BEST. In spite of the awfulness of this procedure, they all did a wonderful job of making it the best it could be. And their humor helped!
