Minimally Invasive Therapy and Day Surgery Unit

MIT/DSU

Our Minimally Invasive Therapy and Day Surgery Unit (MIT/DSU)  is an efficient, independent service, supported by the renowned units and services of The London Clinic.  The unit has a unique layout centred on making patients feel at ease while their visit is handled as smoothly and quickly as possible by a team of specialist nurses and consultants.

Description

We provide high-quality care for patients in admissions, theatre, recovery and second-stage recovery. We cater for both day surgery and inpatients. We also provide outpatient clinics, including gastrointestinal and lithotripsy.

A range of advanced surgical procedures with the least physical trauma, shortest treatment time and (especially with keyhole surgery) reduced recovery time, MIT/DSU often handles in a single day treatments that used to require patients to stay overnight or longer.

We have two dedicated operating theatres equipped with the state-of-the-art advanced laser and other technologies. A separate room handles diagnostic procedures and minor surgical and laser treatments.

Our recovery area is set up to handle multiple levels of recovery, from the most acute cases through to the most minor.

The unit works closely with many specialties, services and centres across the London Clinic, and we pride ourselves on the quality of this seamless integration for patients.

Staff

We have highly trained admission, theatre, recovery and anaesthetic staff who aim to provide a high-quality level of care in all areas of the unit.
