Ambulatory Surgery Centers (ASCs) are independent healthcare facilities that perform outpatient surgeries, diagnostic testing, and preventive procedures. ASCs often provide a more comfortable atmosphere for patients, with state-of-the-art equipment, convenient scheduling and parking, and same-day discharge. Patients can recover in their own homes rather than a hospital bed.

Why Choose Patches West

At Patches West, your child isn’t seen in a general facility that also treats adults. They’re at a center built exclusively for pediatric outpatient care. Our care team is trained to meet the distinct physical and emotional needs of children, and our environment is designed to feel calm and welcoming rather than clinical and overwhelming.

Same-day procedures mean your child recovers at home, in familiar surroundings, with family close by. And because we focus entirely on outpatient care, families benefit from straightforward scheduling, convenient access, and a team that has done this thousands of times for kids just like yours.
