Cape Outpatient Surgery Center



The Cape Surgery Center opened its doors in 1985 as the result of a generous gift in memory of Helen S. Cape.

Cape Outpatient Surgery Center is a same-day surgical center; a medical facility where certain elective surgical procedures are performed and patients return home the same day. An estimated 50 to 60 percent of all surgery can be performed in same-day surgical facilities. Outpatient surgery is a planned elective surgery; non-emergency surgery, which your doctor has recommended and you have chosen.

Here, at the Cape Outpatient Surgery Center, your surgery will be performed by medical specialists in a state-of-the-art facility located next door to Sarasota Memorial Hospital, the region’s premier medical center.

Although ambulatory surgery is commonplace today, the Cape remains the community leader as a multi-specialty center for outpatient surgery. Frequent procedures include: cataract surgery, hernia surgeries, many types of biopsies, pediatric surgeries including tonsillectomies and the insertion of tubes in the ears, certain gynecological procedures, cosmetic surgery, many orthopedic procedures, podiatry procedures and excision of skin cancers.

Patient volume breaks out at 26% for Ophthalmology, General Surgery 16%, GYN 18%, Orthopedic 17%, and Misc. 23%. All physicians who use the Cape must have passed a rigorous credentialing process and hold active hospital admitting privileges at Sarasota Memorial Hospital.

Professionals on staff at Cape Surgery Center will also be happy to assist you in knowing in advance what the cost of your surgery will be.

Mission
To achieve lasting improvement, new and better systems, improved outcomes, better productivity and greater attention to meeting the needs of customers to improve the value of care rendered.

Vision
Provide an environment where there is opportunity to learn, work is meaningful, competence is an expectation and control and input into the way one’s work is done is a shared experience.

Anesthesia
The Anesthesiology Department at Cape Outpatient Surgery Center provides the same high levels of care, experience, equipment and patient monitoring found in Sarasota Memorial Hospital’s operating suites. Your anesthesia will be administered by expert anesthesia personnel.


Considering Surgery?
When you are considering elective surgery, consider this . . .


Is having an accredited facility and a highly trained staff important to you? If it is, then let your physician know that you would prefer to have your surgery performed at the Cape Surgery Center. The Cape has received continuous accreditation by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) since its opening in 1985 and is licensed by the State of Florida as a free-standing ambulatory surgery center. It is also the only center to have 100% of its RN staff certified in Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS).

These accomplishments are a testimony to the hard work and dedication of Cape employees, who want to ensure the best possible care for their patients. The Cape Outpatient Surgery Center has provided benefits to both patients and physicians in its convenient, efficient quality-driven atmosphere.
