                    Our team offers a wide range of surgical services, including emergency surgeries and follow-up care. We care for patients and families throughout the surgical journey. 

                    We recognize that surgery can be a stressful experience, and we want to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Our surgical information handbook will help you prepare for your planned surgery, including your hospital stay, departure and recovery. Depending on the type of procedure you have, you may go home within a few hours after your surgery or stay in the hospital one or more nights.

                    We acknowledge that what we refer to as Alberta is the traditional ancestral territory of a diversity of Indigenous peoples and home to Treaty 6, 7 and 8. We recognize and give thanks to the many First Nations, Métis and Inuit who have lived in and cared for these lands for generations, all who continue to grace these lands and all future generations. We make this acknowledgement as an act of reconciliation and gratitude.
