What if the tonsillectomy was performed at an outpatient surgery center rather than a hospital?

Ambulatory surgical centers (ASCs) and outpatient ENT clinics in Georgia are licensed healthcare facilities subject to the same standard of care as hospital operating rooms. If an outpatient facility lacked adequate resuscitation equipment, failed to staff a qualified anesthesiologist, or discharged a patient who should have been admitted to a hospital, the facility and its staff may be liable. Haug Barron Law Group investigates both the surgeons and the facility in every outpatient surgical malpractice case.
