The Ambulatory Surgery Center of Westchester Home Page

The Ambulatory Surgery Center of Westchester is a
state-of-the-art, multi-specialty outpatient surgical facility that is clinically affiliated with the Mount Kisco Medical Group, Putnam Hospital Center, Bedford Anesthesia, and many of the finest surgeons in Westchester and Putnam Counties. The ASCW is owned and operated by physicians in the community.

The Center provides a specialized environment for outpatient surgery by combining the latest in medical technology with a highly-trained surgical and support staff.

Attending surgeons at the Center are all board-certified or board eligible in their specialties and are credentialed in the latest surgical techniques. Many of the surgeons serve in advisory roles to regional, state, and national medical societies and to medical quality assurance committees; many also serve in clinical leadership positions at their hospitals.

The Center is also proud to provide the highest-quality anesthesia services by Bedford Anesthesia, PLLC. The anesthesiologists are all board certified and are on the voluntary faculty of Mount Sinai School of Medicine. Two of the anesthesiologists have completed fellowships in pediatric anesthesia, and all of the anesthesiologists are experts in administering anesthesia for outpatient surgery.

The Center's facilities have been designed to ensure that patients receive the highest level of care in an environment which is comfortable for them and their families. Both before and after surgery, family members may remain with their loved ones in individual, private cubicles. For younger patients, parents may, in many cases, accompany their children as they settle into the operating room. To make waiting as pleasant as possible for patients and family members, the spacious reception area features a special separate children's play area with toys, books and video entertainment.

     "Our patients will receive the most advanced ambulatory surgical care in a comfortable and pleasant environment."
