Practicing at MSC: Providing the Work-Life Balance Physicians Deserve

Work-life balance often remains elusive, particularly for physicians and surgeons. From dealing with commutes to and from work, irregular hospital hours, prioritizing patient needs, paperwork, and new policy changes, physicians consistently have a lot on their plate. Doctors may even have the sense that someone else is controlling their work lives - and that "someone" maybe hospitals. 

Not only can hospital scheduling be less-than-ideal, but the environment can be less-than-pleasant, even parking situations at a hospital can become somewhat of a nightmare. With constant coding and insurance changes, many physicians are finding themselves spending 20 hours each week on administrative tasks, taking time away from the hours they have available in operating rooms. Stress in working with hospitals often runs high, taking its toll in the form of time and emotional energy that could be spent on working well and enjoying life.

With block scheduling, quicker turnover times, and additional income, a growing number of physicians are turning to ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) for outpatient surgeries to offset the stress of hospitals. Mountain Surgery Center (MSC) offers numerous benefits for physicians who are hoping to more effectively integrate and balance work with other aspects of their lives.

Doctor Offices Close By:

Off-site private doctor offices are available for month to month leasing at an affordable rate. Located less than a minute from the surgery center, the offices include 2 private doctor offices, 4 exam rooms, a comfortable patient waiting area, a receptionist, and a nurse on staff. This turnkey operation is perfect for local or relocating physicians seeking office space in the area near our New Jersey surgery center. This efficiency and convenience mean physicians can spend less time dealing with the details or commuting between locations, and more time enjoying their lives outside of work.

Flexible Scheduling:

Unlike scheduling at hospitals, Mountain Surgery Center offers block scheduling with the flexibility to efficiently perform back-to-back outpatient surgeries. Surgeons may book a full day and our two operating rooms allow physicians to flip back and forth from surgeries without the wait in between. Plus, because over 70% of all ambulatory procedures start within seven minutes of their scheduled time, physicians are able to perform back to back surgeries on a strict schedule—and still make it home in time for dinner with the family.

World-Class Facilities:

Cutting-edge equipment at MSC helps physicians to improve their bottom line while providing safe, comfortable surgeries for their patients. In addition, many patients find that the experience of outpatient surgery at an ambulatory center reduces anxiety and minimizes stress when compared to surgeries performed in a hospital setting.

  • 4 Interactive Operating Rooms (with the latest technology and medical equipment - C-Arms, microscopes & towers, large monitors, and more)
