Outpatient Surgery
The outpatient surgery unit at Hospital Angeles designed to provide you with high-quality surgical care and a shorter hospital stay, allowing for a more comfortable recovery at home. Here, we perform carefully planned procedures that make the most of the hospital’s resources, reduce the costs associated with traditional hospitalization, and keep your safety as our top priority.
The outpatient surgery unit is a medical service that provides low-complexity surgical procedures in a hospital setting, allowing patients to return home on the same day as their surgery.
The outpatient surgery unit offers several benefits: shorter hospital stays, lower risk of hospital-acquired infections, faster recovery, lower costs, and greater convenience for patients, who can return home the same day.
The Outpatient Surgery Unit performs various types of low-complexity surgeries, such as cataract surgery, hernia surgery, varicose vein surgery, and tonsillectomies, among others.
The requirements for outpatient surgery may vary depending on the type of procedure. In general, a preoperative medical evaluation, laboratory tests, and meeting certain health and stability criteria are required.
The recovery process following outpatient surgery depends on the type of procedure performed and the patient’s individual circumstances. In general, it is recommended that you follow your doctor’s instructions, get plenty of rest, care for the surgical wound, take your prescribed medications, and attend your scheduled follow-up appointments.
