Surgical Services

---

When you need surgery, it can be a stressful and emotional time for you and your loved ones. At Western Arizona Regional Medical Center (WARMC), we provide surgical care, advanced technology and knowledgeable and experienced surgeons.

Our skilled teams work closely with patients, families and their primary care doctors to answer questions and address concerns. At Western Arizona Regional Medical Center, our focus is on patient safety, care and comfort.

Minimally Invasive Options
The surgeons at Western Arizona Regional Medical Center perform minimally invasive procedures when possible. By using miniature cameras with microscopes, tiny fiber-optic flashlights and high-definition monitors, surgeons can perform surgery through small incisions that take only a few stitches to close. Minimally invasive procedures may result in less blood loss, less pain and a quicker recovery.
