General surgery: We provide all aspects of patient care related to each field of general surgery, including gastrointestinal, adult oncology, peripheral vascular, and trauma surgery. The division is highly regarded for emphasizing minimally invasive procedures. These procedures include stereotactic breast biopsy, laparoscopic appendectomy, cholecystectomy, hernia repair, and reflux surgery.
Orthopedic surgery: Our orthopedic surgeons treat a variety of musculoskeletal diseases and conditions, ranging from fractures to complex reconstructions and surgery of the extremities. These surgeries include hand surgery, hip resurfacing, and partial knee replacement.
Plastic and reconstructive surgery: Dr. Evan Moore, MD, a Lexington native and third generation plastic surgeon, has teamed up with UK St. Claire’s general surgery team to offer a full range of plastic and reconstructive procedures at St. Claire Regional Medical Center in Morehead. Dr. Moore specializes in all areas of plastic and reconstructive surgery. These include breast procedures, body contouring, facial plastic surgery, fat grafting, and reconstructive procedures.
Bariatric surgery: Surgical weight loss can improve your overall health and change your life. Recommended for adults with a body mass index (BMI) above 40 (or 35 for those experiencing obesity-related health complications), bariatric surgery can result in a considerable amount of weight loss over a short period of time. Not only will you look better, but you'll feel better as you will dramatically reduce your risk of obesity-related health issues, like diabetes, heart and lung problems, stroke, sleep apnea, joint disease and many more.
Vascular surgery: SCH offers patients with vascular disease comprehensive care that is based upon the individual needs of the patient. Testing is necessary to definitively diagnose vascular disease. We offer a full range of non-invasive, painless tests to promote the early detection and management of vascular disease, and endovascular procedures such as stent placement and angioplasty.
