Specialty Surgery Center
Welcome to the Specialty Surgery Center! We have provided quality surgical care to the community to more than 35,000 patients since opening in 1992.
Why patients choose the Specialty Surgery Center
Ambulatory Surgery Centers (ASC's) have transformed and reduced the cost of delivering highly specialized surgical care by creating a more efficient delivery system. Industry reports show cost savings as high as 40% for similar services delivered in a hospital setting. With escalating co-pays and difficult economic times, patients are seeking value.
The Specialty Surgery Center is a fully licensed Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC) in the State of Tennessee. It was the first Medicare Certified ASC in the U.S. to provide Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. In 2005, the license has been expanded to now include Ophthalmology and Plastic Surgery.
Our Teammates
The facility has recruited, hired, and trained an exceptional team dedicated to making patients comfortable, safe, and satisfied. Because of our intense interest in pediatrics, all of our nursing staff is certified both in Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) and Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS)
Patient Satisfaction
Our patient satisfaction surveys consistently grade us above 90%. All comment about the front door parking as a welcome relief from the hospital parking garages that surround our local medical campuses. Because we are a one story, free standing facility, patient access is facilitated for both pediatric and geriatric patients.
