Minor Surgical Procedures

A minor surgical procedure typically includes any procedure that can be safely performed in an outpatient setting like Urgent Care, without the use of general anesthesia or the need for respiratory assistance.  Woodland Hills Medical Clinic & Urgent Care performs such procedures in a safe, sterile environment, using a local anesthetic delivered by either an injection or a topical cream.

Although the types of procedures vary by location, some of the more common minor surgery procedures performed by Woodland Hills Medical Clinic & Urgent Care providers include:

• Removal of foreign objects from superficial wounds, ears, superficial eye, ear, or nose (or vaginal)
• Stitching and/or removal of stitches for wounds and lacerations
• Wart, simple skin tag, cyst, or other skin abnormality removal
• Hemorrhoid surgery
• Incision and Drainage of skin abscess / cyst / hematoma
• Ingrown toe nail removal
• Pilonidal cysts removal
• Trigger point injections
• Biopsy of growths…etc.

Your local Woodland Hills Urgent Care performs many of the same minor surgical procedures as a typical hospital ER, but conveniently and affordably in the safe and sterile environment of our clinics. Our extended hours make it easy to get the minor surgical care you need from wart and skin tag removal, to stitches for minor wounds—and without the costly and inconvenient trip to a hospital or surgery center.
