Why Choose a Surgery Center for Your Next Procedure?
Are you in need of surgery? Have you thought about getting it done at a surgery center?
What are surgery centers?
Surgery centers, also known as outpatient surgery centers, are healthcare facilities that provide patients with surgical services without the need for patients to stay overnight.
The Premier Surgery Center in Knoxville, TN is licensed as an Ambulatory Surgical Treatment Center through the State of Tennessee. Our Surgery Center is a state-of-the art outpatient facility that is conveniently located on Papermill Drive just off Interstate 40.
Outpatient surgery centers have certain advantages over in-patient facilities. Some of these advantages include:
• Lower cost
Outpatient surgery centers are generally less expensive than hospitals. Additionally, Premier Surgery Center is the home of Premier Surgery Packages. Our surgery packages cover the cost of everything involved in the surgery. This includes the cost for the facility, surgeon, anesthesia, supplies, and appointments before and after surgery.
• Convenience
Outpatient surgery centers are more convenient and easier to access. Surgery center physicians are also more accessible to patients pre and post-surgery.
• Less stressful
Spending nights in the hospital can be stressful for many reasons – the cost and the uneasiness of being in a new environment.
If you are accustomed to routines, you may find hospital stays not ideal. Plus, if you have a child or children, you or your child may prefer to recover in a place where you’re most comfortable–your home. Surgery Center procedures are same day. You’ll be back home afterwards.
The procedures offered with our surgery packages are performed in the Premier Surgical facility located at 6408 Papermill Drive in Knoxville off interstate 40.
