Ambulatory Surgery Center

Ambulatory Surgery centers are facilities where surgeries that do not require hospital admission are performed. They provide a cost-effective and convenient environment that is less stressful than what many hospitals can offer. New procedures and fast-acting anesthetics speed recovery time and expedite your return to work and other activities.
As the first free-standing facility in Springfield associated with a medical clinic, Springfield Clinic Ambulatory Surgery Center is committed to being the premier provider of Ambulatory Surgery in Central Illinois.

Patients who elect to have surgery at the Ambulatory Surgery Center arrive on the day of the procedure, have the surgery in a fully equipped operating room, and recover under the care of the nursing staff, all without hospital admission. From pediatric patients to the elderly, both the clients and their families benefit from the comfortable environment of the Center.

Our patients can expect savings of up to 20 to 50 percent compared to the same procedure performed at a local hospital, significantly reducing the out-of-pocket expense. Springfield Clinic Ambulatory Surgery Center has more to offer than just savings. Combined with our welcoming environment, caring health professionals, and latest in equipment and surgical techniques, we provide the value that you expect but rarely find in health care today.
