About Dupont Ambulatory Surgery
Dupont Ambulatory Surgery specializes in a wide array of outpatient services. As part of Dupont Hospital, the center, which is located in the 2510 Building on the Dupont Hospital campus, offers the same five-star quality care and advanced technologies in an easy-to-access facility. Because the center focuses strictly on outpatient procedures without the need to accommodate emergency surgeries, patients are in pre-op and ready for surgery almost immediately after arrival at the center.
The care team includes nurses who have three to 30 years of experience, including operating room and/or critical care experience. And because the nurse to patient ratio is 1:1 prior to surgery and 1:1 or 1:2 after surgery, we are focused on helping you recover from anesthesia as quickly as possible so you can return to the comforts of home.
The center has its own entrance, exit and parking lot, which allows for private discharge after surgery.
