 The safety of our patients, colleagues and visitors is our highest priority.

We have taken many precautions to keep our patients safe during COVID-19, including testing each patient before his or her procedure.

On-site COVID-19 testing is required for all West Hills Surgical Center patients.

Patients can call (818) 226-9151 to request a COVID-19 testing appointment. Our drive-up testing takes place underneath the carport located at our front entrance. COVID-19 testing must take place at least three days, and no more than seven days, prior to the date of the patient’s procedure.

After you receive your COVID-19 test, please stay at home and self-quarantine until you arrive at West Hills Surgical Center for your procedure.

Thank you for choosing West Hills Surgical Center for your healthcare needs.
