Surgery
Surgery is a specialty that focuses on organs such as the intestines, heart, esophagus, stomach, small bowel, colon, liver, pancreas, gall bladder, and often the thyroid gland. Surgery also deals with diseases involving the skin, breast, soft tissue, and hernias.
Our surgeons and team at OSF HealthCare know that the thought of surgery can be frightening.
Our experienced medical staff has made it their commitment to provide patients with the best medical care and the latest technology in accessible, pleasant environments. With convenient consultation and post-surgery appointments in Streator, we are committed to providing quality care, closer to home.
Along with our excellent office staff, we strive to make the surgical process at OSF Saint Elizabeth Medical Center in Ottawa, as smooth and quick as possible so you can return to your family and friends without worry.
