Ambulatory Surgery Center
The Southeastern Spine Institute has South Carolina’s only Ambulatory Surgery Center dedicated specifically to spine health.
Using our state-of the-art ASC, skilled physicians perform outpatient services including less invasive surgical procedures and blocks.
In our in-house surgery center, patients are not required to check into a hospital and can go home the same day. Outpatient surgeries usually have less blood loss for quicker recovery times and without a hospital stay you have much less chance for infections, this means you can get back to your normal life as soon as possible. In addition, avoiding hospitalization can result in huge cost savings, typically 50%. Click here to view types of procedures. |

The patient already knows and trusts our professional staff and this personalized care makes the patient’s experience more comfortable and often results in shorter recovery times.
