Stonebridge Surgery Center

Stonebridge Surgery Center: ambulatory surgery in McKinney, Texas

Stonebridge Surgery Center is an ambulatory surgery center located in McKinney, Texas, that opened its doors on May 29, 2012. The center was conceived by seven board-certified physician partners, with specialties in anesthesiology, general surgery, orthopedics, otolaryngology (ENT), and pain management. According to the center's own presentation, its goal was to build a facility that would stand out for its clinical quality and patient care.

Dr. Richard Thrasher, an otolaryngologist at the center, notes that the group of surgeons sought to meet a higher standard and that the only way to achieve this was to build their own surgical center. The founders have accumulated experience at more than 100 medical facilities, which inspired the creation of a center that would reflect the best practices they had observed.

Specialties and procedures

The center offers surgical services in the following areas:

• Anesthesiology
• General surgery
• Orthopedics
• Otolaryngology (ENT)
• Pain management

In addition, Stonebridge Surgery Center offers Inspire, a treatment option for patients with obstructive sleep apnea who cannot tolerate CPAP.

Accreditation and quality

The center is accredited by The Joint Commission (TJC), which, according to its website, demonstrates its commitment to providing quality medical care and meeting or exceeding TJC standards. The institution states that it puts clinical care first and seeks to exceed the expectations of patients and physicians in every procedure.

Facilities and expansion

The center is currently undergoing construction and renovation to expand its facilities. The expansion includes an additional 8,000 square feet, five operating rooms, and larger, more private pre-op and recovery areas.

Preparation and patient experience

Stonebridge Surgery Center offers guides for before, during, and after surgery. Pre-registration can be completed online and is designed to take 20 to 25 minutes, so it is recommended to have insurance information on hand. On the day of surgery, patients check in at the front desk to verify personal, companion, and insurance information. After the procedure, the center provides recovery instructions for the patient and their family, and requests that a means of transportation be arranged for the return home.

Ownership and affiliations

Stonebridge Surgery Center is a joint venture involving Texas Health Resources, SCA Health, and physician investors. The center defines itself as a physician-owned facility.
