Tour the Surgical Center
The SINGER SURGICAL CENTRE includes a fully equipped plastic surgical facility, which is in many ways a mini-hospital, providing state-of-the-art equipment to protect your health and well being.
The Centre provides highly developed surgical techniques, as well as privacy, personalized attention and specialized equipment designed for your comfort and safety. It is also more economical than having surgery performed in the hospital.
Our professional nursing staff are trained and skilled in the most advanced aspects of plastic surgery. They are caring, sensitive and concerned about your safety and comfort and dedicated to making your plastic surgery experience a positive one.
Our operating and recovery rooms undergo stringent inspection by the American Association for Accreditation of Ambulatory Surgery Facilities and are accredited for major surgery, which is the highest rating possible.
Most surgery is performed with a twilight sleep sedation anesthesia, which is administered by a highly specialized Board certified anesthesiologist. General anesthesia is available.
Our Centre can arrange for post-surgery private homecare nursing, after-care facilities and convenient hotel accommodations. We can also provide extended recovery at Scripps Memorial Hospital, which is adjacent to our Centre.
Many factors go into determining where a surgical procedure is best performed, but in all cases, the patient's comfort, safety, and the requirements of the operation determine whether it is best done in Scripps Memorial Hospital, or in our special plastic surgical Centre.
