Probus Surgical Centre has been providing NHS specialist day case surgery under local anaesthetic in a primary healthcare setting since 1995. The centre, which undertakes approx 3,000 procedures a year, is co-located with Probus GP Surgery near Truro offering a low-key, relaxed environment for our surgical patients.
In Autumn 2006, the national importance of this service was recognised by the Department of Health as a National Demonstration Site, as part of the Care Closer to Home initiative, headed by the (then) Health Minister, Lord Warner. The Probus site is one of only five selected across the country for general surgery.
A full list of our procedures can be viewed here, many of which are described in more detail under the headings in this section with links to the after care that we recommend.
