Partner Surgery Center in Our Stockton Building
Stockton Cardiology doctors perform a variety of procedures at the outpatient Ambulatory Surgical Center (ASC) we are partnered with, called National Surgical Centers Stockton (NSCS). This facility provides a comfortable, convenient, and patient-centered experience, located within the building of the Stockton Cardiology corporate headquarters and clinic at: 415 E. Harding Way in Stockton.
NSCS is owned by physicians, allowing you to work with the Stockton Cardiology cardiologist you know and trust and who you continue to see in pre-operative and post-operative discharge on an outpatient basis, without the headaches of not knowing who you will see for continued care.
NSCS is physician-owned and cares deeply about the quality of care provided. We understand the anxiety you may experience at a larger facility and strive to provide a personal, safe and professional environment you and your family can feel comfortable with.
