TRAUMA AND EMERGENCY CARE

Surgical Specialists of Charlotte provides all trauma care on a 24-hour basis for Presbyterian Hospital. We are trained in emergency care of accident victims including emergency surgery for life threatening chest and abdominal trauma. We direct and coordinate the care of all severely injured patients in the initial stage of resuscitation, and often throughout the hospitalization. This may include car and motorcycle accidents, falls, gunshot and stab wounds, burns, assault and occupational injuries.

Several of our doctors also provide Level One Trauma coverage at CMC Hospital in downtown Charlotte and work with the teaching service there.
