Hawthorn Surgery Center opened in 1980 as one of the first free-standing outpatient surgery centers in Illinois. We presently have five operating rooms. We are located on the Vernon Hills Square complex.
- Specialty Surgeons from Orthopedics, Pain Management, Urology, Pain Management, ENT, Urogynecology, and Podiatry routinely provide services at our center.
- Anesthesia services are provided by Midwest Anesthesia Partners (MAP) from Lutheran General Hospital.
- All Nurses are ACLS (Advanced Cardiac Life Support) trained and many are PALS (Pediatric Advanced Life Support) trained and are committed to a high level of care for our patients.
- Most insurance plans are accepted, but we will verify coverage prior to any surgery and discuss how best to handle your insurance needs with you personally.
