If you need surgery, it can be frustrating figuring out how to fit that into your daily schedule. Between work, errands, your kids\u2019 sports, and the many other things you have going on in your life, your time is precious.<\/p>\n

But imagine being able to fit surgery into your day without needing to go home after surgery to recover from anesthesia effects. In fact, imagine having surgery and being able to drive yourself home the same day.<\/p>\n

We have news for you \u2013 this scenario is not something you can only imagine, it\u2019s real!<\/p>\n

Patients at OSMS can have some procedures performed right in the OSMS clinic setting, in what we call our Procedure Room. This type of treatment is often called \u201coffice-based surgery\u201d or \u201cwide awake local anesthesia no tourniquet (WALANT)\u201d. Due to innovative surgical techniques, in this setting, patients can undergo minimally invasive surgery using local anesthesia.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

How the Procedure Room Works<\/strong><\/h2><\/span>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>

The procedures performed in the OSMS Procedure Room are the same ones performed in the surgery center, using the same tools and following the same techniques. So, as long as patients are comfortable with the office-based setting, then the wide-awake local anesthesia procedures will be scheduled in our procedure room.<\/p>\n

Many other surgeons outside of OSMS are performing these procedures with some form of anesthesia. This requires patients to have a driver and to recover from the effects of anesthesia. The minimally invasive approach from OSMS Physicians in the procedure room is a more straightforward experience, saving you time and money.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
