Hugh Chatham Health Surgical Services strives for maximum patient satisfaction by continually evaluating our patients’ perception of care.

Surgical Services

When your care requires surgery, the Hugh Chatham Health Surgical Services department boasts a state-of-the-art unit that includes five operating rooms and one cystoscopy suite.

We also have an observation room with large windows that allow people to observe surgery. With a surgeon’s permission, family members can observe a patient’s surgery and ask questions directly to the surgeon. We also have the capability to project the surgeon’s view directly to a monitor in the observation room.

Please contact our management team if you have questions or concerns.
