Office Procedures
Convenient, In-Office Solutions for Your Care
At Dr. Rebecca S. Yu’s practice, many procedures can be performed right in our office, offering a convenient and cost-effective alternative to surgery in a formal operating room. These in-office procedures are ideal for treating certain upper extremity conditions, providing efficient care without the need for extensive pre-operative testing or hospital scheduling.
With the use of local anesthesia, patients can often go home shortly after their procedure, making it an accessible and streamlined solution for many conditions. Dr. Yu will guide you through the process, ensuring you are well-informed about the procedure, recovery expectations, and outcomes.
