🩺 MYTH vs. FACT

There are a lot of misconceptions about surgery, from thinking every hernia needs immediate surgery to assuming recovery always means weeks away from your normal routine.

The truth? Every patient and every situation is different. A surgical consultation can help you understand your condition, your options, and whether surgery is actually the right choice for you.

Dr. Scott Porter provides general surgical care right here at SCK Health, so you can get expert care close to home.

Have questions or think you may need a surgical consultation? Call SCK Health at 620-442-2100.

Expert care. Close to home.

Eating Shouldn't Leave You Feeling Miserable.

Do you experience recurring abdominal pain, nausea, or discomfort after meals?

Gallbladder problems are one possible cause of these symptoms.

The solution? Start with an evaluation. Your healthcare provider can determine what may be causing your symptoms and whether a referral to general surgery is appropriate.

If use a call at 620-442-2100. Your symptoms are worth talking about.

🌟 September is Pain Awareness Month 🌟

At SCK Health, we understand how chronic pain can affect your daily life. That’s why we’re proud to offer Epidural Steroid Injections (ESIs) right here in our community, performed by Ryan Berland, CRNA.

👉 What are ESIs?
Epidural Steroid Injections are a minimally invasive treatment designed to help relieve pain caused by inflamed spinal nerves—often from conditions like herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or arthritis. The injection delivers anti-inflammatory medication directly into the epidural space around the spinal nerves, helping to:

✅ Reduce pain
✅ Improve mobility
✅ Support better quality of life

You don’t have to live with ongoing pain. Talk to your provider to see if an ESI might be right for you.

📍 Available at SCK Health – bringing advanced pain management options closer to home.
