NOW YOU CAN UNDERGO ROUTINE ENT AND EYE PROCEDURES IN THE COMFORT OF YOUR OWN DOCTOR’S OFFICE

MobiSurg® Eliminates the Need for Hospitals or Surgery Centers

Laguna Hills, CA –  January 26, 2012 – Children and adults requiring routine Ear, Nose & Throat (ENT) or Ophthalmological procedures no longer need to do so in a hospital or surgery center. With MobiSurg®, a new, accredited and uniquely affordable mobile anesthesia and patient care provider, patients who need simple or routine procedures can now save time, money and worry by undergoing these types of procedures in the privacy and convenience of their own doctor’s office.

“With more than a half million surgeries performed each year, ear tube placement is the most common childhood surgery requiring anesthesia in the United States,” says Shar Alikhani, M.D.  “And, up until now, each of these simple, short procedures had to be performed in a hospital or surgery center.  But with MobiSurg® children of any age, even those with special needs, can have ear tubes inserted in the comfort and security of their own doctor’s office – while still receiving quality, hospital-grade anesthesia.  MobiSurg® is revolutionizing the way patients receive safe, accredited anesthesia as well as helping minimize out of control healthcare costs.”

Continues Dr. Alikhani, “Most ENT and Ophthalmology cases have traditionally been performed in hospital and surgery centers and at a huge cost to the patient and the medical system. Because many of these procedures are low-to-mid-risk and can be easily performed in the office setting, with MobiSurg® they can be done at a fraction of the cost. Patients can be in and out in less than one hour and avoid the hassle and high cost of hospitals completely.”

Dr. Alikhani states that many ENT procedures, such as myringotomies, exams under anesthesia, removal of foreign objects, biopsies, microscopic ear surgeries, incision and drainage, rhinoplasties, and even adenoidectomies and sinus surgeries, may be performed in the office setting. Ophthalmologic procedures such as blepharoplasty, lacrimal duct probing, cataract removal, stye removal and strabismus surgery can be done simply, safely and affordably in a doctor’s office with MobiSurg®.

MobiSurg® is the only accredited mobile surgical provider able to administer the same hospital grade anesthesia to kids, adults and special needs patients – in any environment. MobiSurg® brings everything right to your doctor’s office, including the anesthesiologist, medical staff, medications, and certified monitoring equipment and emergency evacuation plan, making undergoing surgical procedures safe, affordable and hospital-free.

“At MobiSurg®, we handle all the details for you,” Dr. Alikhani says.  “Our surgical supply vehicle is outfitted with the latest hospital-grade equipment and supplies.  We are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and bring all medical staff, assistants, medications and equipment with us directly to your doctor’s office.  We also provide a detailed floor plan and emergency evacuation plan for every location, as well as an emergency lighting system, battery back up system, state inspected fire extinguisher, wireless communication system, back up monitors and oxygen delivery service and sterile supplies.”

MOBISURG® ENABLES AUTISTIC AND SPECIAL NEEDS CHILDREN THE ABILITY TO UNDERGO MANY SURGICAL PROCEDURES IN THE COMFORT AND SAFETY OF THEIR OWN PHYSICIAN’S OFFICE

MobiSurg’s Specially Trained Anesthesiologists Are Skilled at Dealing with and Minimizing Stress and Anxiety Experienced by Autistic Patients Before Surgery

Laguna Hills, CA – MobiSurg® is a highly acclaimed and rapidly expanding mobile medical practice in which the anesthesiologist and medical staff come directly to a patient’s own doctor’s office to provide the anesthesia and medical care necessary for many routine surgical procedures.  Because children with Autism are especially hard to treat, Mobisurg® is the safe, logical choice for a host of procedures, including dental, ophthalmological, orthopaedic, podiatric and ENT – because MobiSurg® enables kids to undergo these procedures in the comfort and safety of their own doctor’s offices rather than at a hospital or surgery center.

“Autistic children have a variety of special needs and issues, especially when it comes to surgery,” says Dr. Alikhani.  “Because of these behavioral, emotional and safety concerns, Autistic kids are among the most difficult to treat by doctors, dentists and surgeons.  With MobiSurg®, we are able to offer these patients the same safe, hospital-quality anesthesia but in a comfortable, stress free environment with their parents by their side in their own doctor’s office.”

Continues Dr. Alikhani, “The MobiSurg® team works with parents and their doctors to understand the nature of their children’s particular Autism or Autism Spectrum Disorder so that we can minimize the stress and anxiety many of these kids feel before surgery.  For example, if we can learn an Autistic patient’s particular enjoyments and soothing comforts beforehand – whether they be music, television, whatever – we can make them part of the surgical process to reduce nervousness and to pleasantly distract them.  This makes for a safer, more relaxed surgical environment for both the doctor and the child.”

“Parents love MobiSurg® because they know their kids are being cared for by a Board Certified, Harvard-trained pediatric anesthesiology expert who understands their special needs.  They also appreciate the economic benefits of having routing procedures performed in their doctor’s office rather than in a costly hospital or surgery center.
And best of all, most insurance covers MobiSurg’s services for Autistic and special needs children.  It’s a win/win for everyone,” Dr. Alikhani says.

Serving all of Southern California, including Los Angeles, Orange, San Bernardino, Riverside and San Diego Counties, MobiSurg® is the brainchild of Shar Alikhani, M.D., a Harvard-trained, board-certified Physician anesthesiologist.  Recognizing an underserved patient population – special needs children and hard-to-treat patients – he began MobiSurg® to offer the same safe, hospital-quality anesthesia and medical services to these patients within the security and privacy of their own physician’s office.

MobiSurg® enables doctors and dentists to perform a host of procedures including dental extractions, cleanings, root canals, ear tube placement, exams under anesthesia, dermatologic procedures such as mole removal and cyst excision, upper GI endoscopy, and MRI/CT scans, among many others.  And with MobiSurg®, you don’t have to experience the expense or stress of undergoing procedures in a hospital our surgery center.

Concludes Dr. Alikhani, “MobiSurg® truly offers the best, most worry-free and comfortable solution to surgical procedures for special needs kids.  And because safety is of the utmost importance, we also provide a detailed floor plan and emergency evacuation plan for every location, as well as an emergency lighting system (90 minutes), battery back up system (90 minutes), state inspected fire extinguisher, wireless communication system, back up monitors and oxygen delivery service and sterile supplies.  With MobiSurg®, there is no need to ever go to a hospital again.”

HOW CAN YOU ENSURE THE SAFETY OF YOUR CHILD WHEN UNDERGOING ANESTHESIA DURING DENTAL PROCEDURES?

Choosing the Right Pediatric Anesthesiologist is Critical in Safeguarding the Wellbeing of Your Child During Any Surgical Procedure

Orange County, Los Angeles, Riverside, San Diego, Laguna Hills, CA – “Parents should understand completely who is providing anesthesia for their child’s dental procedure,” according to Dr. Alikhani.

Shar Alikhani, M.D., a Board Certified physician anesthesiologist, has undergone advanced fellowship training in pediatric anesthesia. He has served as the Chief of Anesthesia at Children’s Hospital of Orange County (CHOC) at Mission for more than ten years, and he has performed more than 10,000 pediatric anesthetics. He is the founder of MobiSurg®, a ground-breaking new concept in mobile anesthesiology and patient care that now allows young children and hard-to-treat patients the ability to undergo anesthesia for dental procedures – safely and without sacrificing the quality and built-in safeguards of a hospital – in the comfort and relaxed environment of their own dentist’s office.

Says Dr. Alikhani, “There are many different types of providers out there offering similar services: dentist anesthesiologists (DDS or DMD), doctors of osteopathy (DO), nurse anesthetists (RN), and medical doctors (MD). The training, background, credentials and experience of all these practitioners is different, and they can all refer to themselves as “Doctor”. This lack of transparency makes it difficult to know the credentials of your anesthesia provider which may require some in-depth research. It is definitely more challenging to administer anesthesia to kids if you don’t have the proper training and experience. As the former Chief of Anesthesiology at a major Children’s hospital for 10 years, it is my passion to provide the highest quality of care to my pediatric patients in the office – the same quality care found in a hospital setting. It is very very important for parents, pediatricians and dentists to know who is providing the anesthesia to their children and what kind of training and back up support they have:

•First, it is essential for parents to know they have a choice in their child’s anesthesiologist. They should make the best and safest choice for their child. Parents should make sure they are using an MD anesthesiologist who is board certified by the American Board of Anesthesiology (ABA), and preferably has minimum 1 year fellowship training in pediatric anesthesiology from a reputable children’s hospital, in addition to hospital experience in taking care of sick children who have undergone major surgery.

•Second, it is equally as important to understand the anesthesiologist’s plan for emergencies. Make certain that the anesthesiologist has a hospital quality emergency cart with pediatric specific resuscitation equipment, and a team of personnel trained in PALS (Pediatric Advanced Life Support); accreditation as a surgical setting by an accrediting agency such as the AAAHC (Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care) or the IMQ (Institute for Medical Quality) ensures that these guidelines are followed. It is very easy to cut corners in this line of business and show up with a duffle bag or a tackle box of supplies and medications, or machines and monitors that have not been kept to hospital standards.”

Dr. Alikhani founded MobiSurg® to fill a need in the medical world – safe, hospital-quality anesthesia for children, hard-to-treat patients and people seeking privacy and affordability within the comfort of their doctor’s office.

MOBISURG DRIVES HEALTH CARE REFORM WITH MAJOR COST SAVINGS TO BOTH PATIENTS AND INSURANCE COMPANIES

MobiSurg® Outpatient Surgery Can Offer Significant Savings for Insurance Companies & Patients

Laguna Hills, CA – MobiSurg® is a ground-breaking new concept in mobile outpatient surgery that allows patients the ability to undergo general anesthesia safely and cost-effectively in the comfort and privacy of their own doctor’s office. Undergoing surgery with MobiSurg® means patients and their insurance companies can avoid the high cost usually associated with surgeries booked at hospitals or surgery centers.  Before the arrival of MobiSurg®, hospitals and surgery centers were the only – and very high priced – option. But now MobiSurg® enables patients from children to adults including the elderly and hard-to-treat the ability to get the surgical procedures they need safely and affordably.

The driving force behind MobiSurg® is Dr. Shar Alikhani, a Harvard-trained, board certified anesthesiologist with unparalleled experience in the field and in the area of pediatric anesthesiology.  MobiSurg® was created to fill a need in the medical world – quality anesthesia for hard-to-treat patients and people seeking convenience, privacy and affordability.  MobiSurg® offers the same safe, hospital-quality anesthesia and medical services to pediatric patients, high-risk and even difficult-to-treat patients within the comfort, privacy and security of their own doctor’s office. MobiSurg® serves all of Southern California, including Los Angeles, Orange, San Bernardino, Riverside and San Diego Counties.

Says Dr. Alikhani, “MobiSurg® is revolutionizing the cost of health care in the United States. We all know that health care costs associated with outpatient surgery are driving up the cost of healthcare nationwide, but with MobiSurg® patients and insurance companies alike are able to save three-to-four fold versus the costs they’d have to face by going the traditional hospital or surgery center route. With MobiSurg®, a wide variety of surgical procedures no longer require a hospital visit and can be safely and easily performed right in the comfort and convenience of most  doctors’ offices – using the same hospital-grade anesthesia and equipment. And MobiSurg® is the only mobile medical surgical provider accredited by the AAAHC (Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care, Inc.) which enables us to provide conscious sedation, deep sedation or general anesthesia utilizing the same quality anesthesiologists, staff, and medicines you would receive in a hospital. If more doctors used MobiSurg®, we could significantly reduce the cost of health care in those areas we serve,” Dr. Alikhani says.

Continues Dr. Alikhani, “MobiSurg® is the perfect solution for patients with limited or no medical coverage, individuals with high deductibles, or for insurance carriers who are struggling with the costs associated with hospital-based and outpatient surgery. For some patients, in-office outpatient surgery with MobiSurg® is less than the cost of their insurance deductible.  Patients who must pay out-of-pocket for surgical care can now do so much more affordably.”

MobiSurg’s highly-trained and credentialed staff transforms any medical or dental office into the highest-quality surgical suite by bringing the latest, most state-of-the-art medical equipment and supplies, ensuring the safest and most cost-effective outpatient surgical care. “Our safety standards for in-office outpatient surgical procedures meet or exceed most hospital-based and outpatient surgery centers,” says Dr. Alikhani.

SPECIAL NEEDS KIDS & ADULTS CAN NOW UNDERGO MRIs AND SCANS WITHOUT GOING TO A HOSPITAL OR SURGERY CENTER

MobiSurg® Makes Radiology Easy, Convenient & Safe – Anywhere

Laguna Hills, CA – MobiSurg®, a revolutionary new mobile concept in patient care and anesthesia, brings accredited radiology and MRI compatible anesthesia machines, monitors and equipment that can transform any existing radiology center into a facility capable of providing hospital-grade anesthesia. This innovation allows any free-standing radiology center new options in providing care for special needs children and hard-to-treat adults. Traditionally, young children and children and adults with special needs or conditions such as Autism, Parkinson’s or Alzheimer’s, had to go to a hospital in order to receive safe, anesthesia for radiologic procedures. Now with MobiSurg® these same hard-to-treat patients can undergo invasive and even simple radiologic procedures inside the comfort and convenience of any local radiology center.

MobiSurg® is the only accredited mobile medical-surgical provider able to administer the same hospital grade anesthesia and perioperative care to kids, adults and special needs patients – in any environment. MobiSurg® brings everything right to the radiology center, including a board certified anesthesiologist, anesthesia equipment, monitoring devices, and many other equipment and supplies, making undergoing radiology procedures safe, affordable and hospital-free.
Says Dr. Alikhani, “For years, hospitals were the only places patients requiring anesthesia for radiologic procedures could go as they were the only locations where anesthesia could be administered.  With MobiSurg®, patients can now undergo a host of radiologic procedures that used to require a hospital visit, right in the comfort and convenience of their local radiology centers – saving them thousands of dollars, hours of travel and down time, as well as time spent waiting for test results. And the anesthesia provided at MobiSurg® is delivered with the same safety and care that can be expected in the hospital.  MobiSurg® truly offers individualized attention in a more personal setting.”
Dr. Alikhani continues, “MobiSurg® is a huge convenience for patients and families.  There is often so much fear and apprehension for parents whose children must undergo procedures involving anesthesia. Now these kids can have safe, hospital grade anesthesia in a friendly, calm atmosphere close to their home, with their parents by their side, and can wake up in their parents’ arms instead of in an unfamiliar hospital recovery room. In addition, patients and parents can often get their test results much faster since they do not have to navigate the bureaucracy of a hospital. This calms nerves and makes for a more relaxed process for radiologic procedures.”
Radiologists and insurance companies all across Southern California are recognizing the safety, value and convenience of MobiSurg®. “Even simple procedures involving anesthesia in a hospital setting may cost as much as $10,000 or more,” says Dr. Alikhani.  “MobiSurg® eliminates these high costs and makes so much financial sense for all parties involved – it really is the wave of the future.” MobiSurg® is also an affordable alternative when insurance companies will not cover the cost of anesthesia-based procedures.  Doctors appreciate the convenience, time and cost-saving benefits of MobiSurg®, too.
