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 specialized medical service that performs low-complexity surgical procedures on patients who do not require hospitalization.
The benefits of outpatient surgery include a faster recovery, a lower risk of hospital-acquired infections, lower costs, and the ability to go home on the same day as the surgery.
The Outpatient Surgery Unit performs surgeries in a variety of specialties, including general surgery, plastic surgery, orthopedic surgery, and ophthalmic surgery, among others.
The requirements for outpatient surgery vary depending on the type of procedure, but generally include being in good health, not having any uncontrolled chronic conditions, and having someone to accompany you home.
The recovery process after outpatient surgery depends on the type of procedure performed, but in general, it is recommended that you follow your doctor’s instructions, get plenty of rest, take care of the surgical wound, and attend all scheduled follow-up appointments.
