Surgical Program

The Surgical Program offers a comprehensive range of services spanning a wide continuum of care for surgical patients. Approximately 16,000 surgeries are performed each year in the specialty areas of neurosurgery, orthopedics, urology, oral/dental surgery, ear nose and throat (ENT), thoracic, cardiac surgery, vascular, plastic surgery, gynaecology, ophthalmology and general surgery. Currently, the hospital has a total of 15 operating room suites on two sites, which will increase to 17 in our newly expanded one-site hospital.

Post Anesthetic Care Units

The Post Anesthetic Care Units, formerly known as our recovery rooms, are reflective of the operating room needs, with patient bay numbers matching the needs of the O.R.

Surgical In-Patient Units

There are four in-patient surgical units with a total of 117 surgical beds to care for patients post-operatively, as well as a separate endoscopy unit which performs over 8,000 endoscopic procedures per year including colonoscopy, gastroscopy and bronchoscopy.

Other Services

The program is also responsible for infection control, instrument reprocessing and medical photography, as well as the Blood Conservation Program and Acute Pain Management Service.

Pre-Admission Clinic

The Pre-Admission Clinic provides pre-operative testing and screening for all patients who enter the hospital electively for surgery. The clinic sees approximately 1,200 patients per month.

Day Surgery Units

Day Surgery Units care for patients returning home post-operatively on the same day of surgery.
