Availability

As a surgeon, or a patient, one of the most important needs for a surgical center is availability. If anytime they need to perform a surgery the center is booked, it does not benefit the surgeon or their patients. Surgeons who partner with CVSC are provided with block time schedules so they can plan surgeries accordingly and offer their patients options. CVSC partner surgeons are also offered last minute adjustments as needed for unforeseen circumstances or emergencies. Central Valley Surgical Center really is a partnership between the facility, staff, and the experienced surgeons that use the facility.

Location

One of the most important benefits CVSC offers is its primary location in central, downtown Bakersfield, close to hospitals and multiple medical facilities. For surgeons and their patients, this means less travel time, allowing surgeons to see more patients without lost time driving. No one expects anything to go wrong during surgeries, but when things do, CVSC staff are experienced and prepared to handle any situation. The surgical center being so close to local hospitals also ensures that during emergency situations they have instant access to a full hospital with all its resources. Typically, all needs are met within the modernized CVSC facility, with its state-of-the-art medical equipment and experienced surgical staff knowledgeable in the newest procedures and latest technology.



Independently Owned

Another huge benefit that sets CVSC apart from other surgery centers, is that it is independently owned. While many hospitals offer surgical facilities, they also have a large hospital board that they answer to. This means whenever improvements are needed, or new technology advancements required, they must receive approval and compete against numerous other departments for limited funds. However, at Central Valley Surgical Center, independent ownership means state-of-the-art equipment, modernized facility, competitive pricing for cash patients and underinsured patients, and efficient services.

Payment Options

One of the most important aspects for patients when it comes to surgeries is how they will pay for those services. Central Valley Surgical Center ensures that patients have options, from contracting with most of the major insurance companies, to offering cash payment options. Surgeons can be assured that likely any insurance they are accepting for their patients will be accepted at CVSC, and the staff are experienced and skilled at helping with the insurance pre-authorization process.

Exceptional Staff

For any medical facility, the most important element, and the thing that makes it stand out from other facilities, is the staff. Patients want to feel welcomed and cared for and know that they are safe and in good hands. Surgeons want to know that the surgical staff they are relying on are knowledgeable and experienced. Central Valley Surgical Center understands these needs and ensures that all staff at their facility are experienced, skilled, and compassionate. Current surgeons at CVSC rang from veterans with over 20 years of experience to relatively new surgeons extremely knowledgeable in the newest procedures and latest technology, and they all heavily rely on the skills and experience of the surgical staff. With extensive experience in general surgery, orthopedic surgery, podiatry surgery, plastic surgery, pain management, and cataract surgery, the surgical staff are precisely trained to assist in all areas. For example, there are staff specifically trained to assist with cataract surgeries and operating the newest, advanced equipment for cataract surgery, the Zeiss microscope. The medical experience of the staff far exceeds that of most surgical facilities, such as an anesthesia CRNA provider experienced with trauma and higher acute services. Their patient skills are also exemplary, with staff speaking over 4 different languages, English, Spanish, Punjabi, and Hindi, they ensure that all patients feel safe and comfortable at their facility. Effective communication with patients is crucial, and CVSC staff ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable.
