Elective surgery refers to procedures that are planned and scheduled in advance, rather than performed in an emergency situation. These surgeries are typically undertaken to improve the patient’s quality of life or address non-life-threatening conditions. Unlike emergency surgeries, which are necessary to address immediate medical concerns, elective surgeries are scheduled at the patient’s and doctor’s convenience.
Common types of elective surgeries include knee or hip replacements, cataract removal, and cosmetic surgeries like rhinoplasty. The elective surgery process typically involves a thorough consultation with a healthcare provider, pre-surgical testing, and a carefully curated recovery plan. This allows patients and doctors to discuss the best course of action and prepare adequately for both the procedure and post-operative care.
The Medical Group at MSLC has been a cornerstone of the community since its establishment in 2011, providing comprehensive medical services in Newburgh and Cornwall. Our physicians are not only experts in their fields but also community members who understand the unique healthcare needs of our area.
