The new office aims to meet demand in the southern tier of New York for orthopedic cases that do not require emergency attention, according to the report.
“If you’ve been to the emergency room, sometimes the waits can be very long. We want to be able to provide a service to the community to help patients with orthopedic injuries,” Joseph Choi, MD, Guthrie’s chair of orthopedics, told the Gazette. “We have X-rays, doctors and nurse practitioners to see patients, along with nurses and office support, so we’re fully staffed.”
At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
