Patients finally have the chance to view surgery live before undergoing it themselves. Cataract, bladeless LASIK, glaucoma, and cosmetic procedures are now being performed in Newsom Eye’s surgical center, Tampa Surgery Center. Observation windows enabling live viewing of surgery, along with televisions to see from the microscopic perspective, are two of the many state of the art features at Tampa Surgery Center.
Tampa Surgery Center is also the new location for LASIK surgery at Newsom Eye. LASIK can be performed right in a doctor’s clinical office; it is not required to be conducted in the sterile environment of an operating room. However, Dr. Newsom has established the new standard in LASIK by performing these procedures in Tampa Surgery Center, as an extra precaution to protect his patients.
The facility includes several FDA research-ready operating rooms that were designed to comply with the strict standards required for FDA research studies. “Despite the economy, we’ve still been able to grow and add to our practice. We were able to bring some of the newest FDA research to the Tampa Bay area. We believe this size of investment was necessary to provide a facility capable of the research and exceptional patient care that has brought patients from across the country seeking our surgical expertise. Located only eight miles north of Tampa International Airport, this expanded facility provides more services than our other locations and allows easier access for patients traveling long distances.”
Tampa Surgery Center is located on the first floor of Newsom Eye’s Tampa location. Click here for directions to the facility.
