Committed to surgical excellence in caring for children.
We provide specialised care in a safe envoirnment
How is circumcision done In Weston Surgical Centre?
Before the operation the consultant will examine the child and explain the procedure. You can accompany the child to theatre until he goes to sleep, then you will have to leave, once the child is in recovery you will be invited back. Whilst asleep and your child cannot feel pain the foreskin is removed blood vessels sealed so there is no bleeding and very fine plastic surgical stitches applied which dissolve. Local anaesthetic is infilterated so the area will be numb and pain free for 4- 6 hours after the procedure . Once the child is awake he will be moved to recovery where you will join him. Post operative care is explained and care sheet provided for pain relief. You will have the consultants contact number to call if you have any concerns. There is no bandage no plastic ring so healing is quicker.
We are proud to have looked after thousands of children safely. The measure of our care is that many consultants, paediatric doctors , GPs and have traveled form far, some abroad, to the Weston Surgical Centre.
Specialised Care at Affordable Cost
How much does it cost?
Operation by Consultant Paediatric Surgeons in other private hospitals or NHS private patient departments is over two thousand pounds. The weston surgical centre has been set up for the community and the cost depends on the age of the child but is 10 - 20 % of the cost. We are proud that our Audited results show the highest standards for outcome and parent satisfaction
Who are Paediatric Surgeons?
They do a 5-year degree in medicine, recognised by the G.M.C, a 2-year foundation course of general training then upto 7 years of specialist training, They are senior doctors not GPs.
Who do they Treat
Paediatric surgical is the only specialty that is defined by the patient’s age rather than by a specific condition and deals with many diseases, trauma and malformations from the foetal period to teenage years.
Carefully Audited Results
Weston Surgical centre proactively audits its outcomes against published standards and has the highest standards with minimal complications and highest patient satisfaction.
Who do we look after
We look after children from all faiths. If children have medical conditions we have to liaise with the child's treating specialist to ensure it is safe to proceed. We have found treating specialists very supportive and helpful for the child's care.
