Outpatient Experience & Benefits

Banner Health’s outpatient surgery centers offer convenient, high-quality care for many common procedures. Designed for comfort and efficiency, these centers provide expert treatment in a quiet setting — with no overnight stay required. 

What is outpatient surgery? 

Outpatient surgery, also known as same-day or ambulatory surgery, allows you to go home the same day as your procedure. It’s a safe and effective option for many minimally invasive surgeries and treatments. 

What are the benefits of outpatient surgery? 

Outpatient centers deliver the same expert care you'd expect in a hospital, with added convenience and comfort. Benefits include: 

• Trusted, high-quality care: You’ll receive care from a skilled Banner Health team, using the same advanced tools and protocols found in hospital settings. 
• Shorter wait times and efficient scheduling: Procedures are scheduled in advance, helping reduce delays and create a calmer experience for patients and families. 
• Faster recovery time: Because outpatient procedures are often less invasive, they typically allow for quicker healing and fewer disruptions to your daily routine. 
• Lower overall costs: Many outpatient surgeries cost less than inpatient procedures, making them a more affordable option for patients without sacrificing quality.
