Pediatric Surgical Associates will offer abdominal surgery, thoracic surgery, genitourinary surgery, head and neck surgery and laparoscopic surgery, among other services. 

“Previously, outside of ENT procedures, children would need to travel to Dallas or Houston to receive surgical care. Now, they can stay in town —  which is better for the patients, for their families and for their care,” Lynn Wyllie, RN, certified surgical services manager and associate vice president of perioperative services at Christus, told the News-Journal. 

 

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
