The Ambulatory Surgery Center accommodates surgical, medical and diagnostic
procedures which do not necessitate an inpatient admission. Outpatients who
are to receive a general anesthetic, monitored anesthesia care or a regional
anesthetic are evaluated in the Ambulatory Surgery Center by a member of the
anesthesia department.
The Ambulatory Surgery Unit is utilized for a wide variety of procedures as
determined and scheduled by the responsible physician. This one-day surgery
facility greatly reduces the cost of surgical procedures and decreases the psychological
trauma associated with them.
Note: This clinic is available to your child by physician referral.
Talk with your child’s physician and tell him/her you would like to be
referred to ACH. Have the doctor contact the Arkansas Children’s Hospital
Physician Referral Services Department to make a referral. If your child does
not have a regular physician, please call 501-364-5901 and we will be happy
to recommend one in your area.
