The North Seattle Surgery Center is a multi-specialty ambulatory surgery center, providing care for patients needing:

• Orthopedic
• Podiatric
• General
• Gynecologic
• Urologic
• Ear, Nose and Throat

We focus only on surgical procedures that do not require post-operative hospitalization. Typically, our patients are discharged following a recovery period of approximately two hours.

To refer patients, please contact one of our participating physicians. Their office staff will contact our surgery scheduler to book the procedure.

Patient Medical Information
To avoid unnecessary duplication of tests and assure continuity of care, please forward all pertinent medical history information to NSSC when you refer a patient.

Follow-up Information
Following surgery, the surgeon will contact the patient’s primary care physician with a summary of findings and recommendations for at-home follow-up care.
