What Are the Outpatient Procedures We Perform?

What are the outpatient procedures we perform? Anuj Prasher, M.D., F.A.A.O.S., a board-certified orthopaedic surgeon at South Florida Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine, describes some of the outpatient procedures available in the surgery center or at the office and the benefits they can provide. “Outpatient surgery has been shown to lower the risk of infection,” says Dr. Prasher. “Patients can go home the same day, and outpatient procedures improve patient comfort by allowing you to sleep in your own bed, and eat your own food. You will not be bothered by noisy neighbors or people waking you up in the middle of the night as can happen in some inpatient settings.” “In some instances, there can be lower costs associated with having an outpatient surgery rather than being in an inpatient setting,” continues Dr. Prasher. “Some of the procedures that I perform in the outpatient center are lumbar laminectomies for spinal stenosis, microdiscectomy for herniated discs, single level cervical spine fusions and in some instances, minimally-invasive lumbar fusions.” “All those procedures have been proven to be safely performed in an outpatient setting with no added risk to the patient with the benefit of having lower infection rates and improved patient comfort at home.” “Other types of procedures we can perform in the office setting include epidural injections for pain, and kyphoplasty to treat compression fractures related to osteoporosis. These procedures have the same benefits as in the outpatient center like a lower risk of infection and being able to go home the same day hopefully with significant pain relief. To see if you might be a candidate for an in-office or outpatient surgery, please give South Florida Orthopedics a call and ask for an appointment to see Dr. Prasher. I'd be happy to see if we can help you.” For more visit http://SouthFlaOrtho.com To learn more about spinal pain and treatment visit https://southflaortho.com/spine-neck/ To learn more about Dr. Prasher visit https://southflaortho.com/anuj-prashe...
