What is EASC
Located directly behind Evangelical Community Hospital on JPM Road, Evangelical Ambulatory Surgical Center is an independent, same-day surgical center privately owned by local physicians and Evangelical Community Hospital. It was built to provide a cost-effective and convenient environment for patients who require outpatient surgery.

EASC is licensed by the Pennsylvania Department of Health, certified by Medicare, and affiliated with most major insurances, HMOs and PPOs.

As a multi-specialty facility, EASC provides the services of four major operating rooms that are fully equipped with the latest in operating technology, as well as two endoscopy suites, and two pain management procedure rooms. The recovery area has been designed to meet all stages of recovery so the patient does not have to be moved. The center is staffed by certified, experienced nursing staff who can care for pediatric through geriatric patients.

EASC is conveniently located for physicians and their patients and offers superior patient comfort in a friendly and caring atmosphere. Our mission is to offer excellence and convenience by being equipped with the best technology available and staffed with highly skilled, caring professionals.

What EASC is Not
EASC is not the same thing as a rural health clinic, urgent care center, or any other ambulatory care center that provides diagnostic or primary health care. EASC treats only patients who have already seen a health care provider and selected surgery as an appropriate treatment. Physician offices are not ambulatory surgical centers. All ambulatory surgical centers must have at least one dedicated operating room and the equipment needed to safely perform surgery and ensure quality patient care.
