Simple procedures performed by a qualified professional
Certain health situations require a minor, quick, and safe local procedure, without having to go to the hospital or see a doctor in an emergency. At Clinique Santé STAT, we offer minor surgery services to treat or relieve certain skin lesions, superficial wounds, or local discomfort in a calm, professional, and accessible setting.
Our procedures are performed by competent professionals in accordance with professional and safety standards. They are intended to meet an immediate need, promote healing, or prevent a problem from worsening.
This service is available by appointment only and does not always require a prior medical referral. We can also provide care in addition to medical follow-up or a recommendation from another healthcare professional.
What is minor surgery ?
Minor surgery refers to a simple, non-urgent procedure performed under local anesthesia or without anesthesia, directly at the clinic. This type of care is particularly useful in the following cases:
- Cleaning and treatment of a minor or moderately deep wound;
- Removal of stitches or staples;
- Post-operative care (e.g., wound check, complex dressing, removal of rods or drains);
- Incision and drainage of a small abscess or cyst;
- Removal of a superficial foreign body (splinter, glass shard, etc.);
- Application of skin glue or adhesive strips to close a wound;
- Evaluation of a suspicious skin lesion (with referral if necessary).
The goal is to relieve pain, prevent infection, and promote optimal healing in a clean, controlled environment.
Who is this service recommended for?
Minor surgeries are for anyone with a skin lesion or injury that requires prompt care but does not warrant a visit to the emergency room. They are suitable for children, adults, seniors, and caregivers who wish to avoid delays in the public health care system.
You can also consult us after a visit to the emergency room or surgery to ensure local follow-up and free up more specialized medical resources.
In all cases, the professional will assess your situation to ensure that the procedure is safe and appropriate. If necessary, we will refer you to a doctor or appropriate facility.
A safe, respectful, and patient-centered approach
All procedures are performed in a clean room with sterile equipment in accordance with current protocols. We take the time to explain each step, answer your questions, and provide follow-up care if necessary.
Our goal is to offer you a reassuring experience, without unnecessary waiting, while respecting your comfort and dignity. After the procedure, we will provide you with the necessary recommendations for healing and, if necessary, a form to send to your healthcare professional.
You can also combine this service with other care offered at the clinic, such as ear cleaning, cardiac monitoring, or the completion of medical forms, depending on your situation.
