The Surgery Center
Welcome to the Surgery Center of River Falls Area Hospital. We offer a comprehensive surgical team, including surgeons, nurses, surgical techs, registered nurse anesthetists and an array of support staff, close to home. Their expertise, skill and compassion provide you with the highest quality surgical care available.
The Surgery Center offers three fully equipped operating rooms, with a fourth shelled in for future expansion. The Center was designed with patient privacy and the latest technology as primary considerations. The surgical suites feature private rooms for preparation, recovery and private consultation. The recovery area includes four private bays, a pediatric recovery room and windows for natural light.
Surgical specialties include general surgery, such as colon resections and gall bladder; OB/GYN, such as hysterectomies and C-sections; orthopedics, such as knee and hip replacements; ophthalmology, such as cataract surgery; ear, nose, and throat (ENT); urology; and podiatry.
Our technology
River Falls Area Hospital offers state-of-the-art minimally invasive surgical procedures. One of the operating rooms at River Falls Area Hospital is furnished with advanced equipment that is revolutionizing obstetric/gynecologic, lung, gallbladder, hernia, appendix and other surgeries.
In these procedures, the surgeon inserts a camera through an incision and sees the images on a monitor. Special instruments for the procedure are inserted into other small incisions. The surgeon can view the procedure on a fiber optic, high-definition monitor that can magnify and enhance the view. In addition, other images, such as X-ray images, can be shown on the monitors at the same time, allowing the surgeon to see the camera and the images simultaneously.
