No hospital. No overnight stays. No weeks of recovery. Just advanced minimally invasive surgery — and you're back to your life the same day.
Every concern is valid. Here's what actually happens with our approach.
From the moment you walk in to the moment you're home — it all happens the same day.
Check in at the Georgia Advanced Surgery Center for Women — a state-of-the-art outpatient facility. No hospital lines, no chaos. Just your care team, ready for you.
You receive anti-nausea medication before surgery and localized anesthetic injections during the procedure — minimizing post-op pain and recovery time from the start.
Dr. Barfield performs your procedure using advanced minimally invasive techniques — small incisions, precision, no robotic markups. Most procedures are complete in under 90 minutes.
You rest comfortably as anesthesia wears off. Your care team monitors you closely. No hospital ward — just calm, attentive care in a private recovery suite.
95%+ of patients are discharged within 1–2 hours of surgery. You go home to your own bed, your own family, your own comfort — the same day.
Not all hysterectomies are created equal. Here's how our approach stacks up.
Hear from patients who chose a better way.
"I was terrified of being in the hospital for days. I had my surgery at 9AM and was eating dinner with my kids that same evening. I couldn't believe how little pain I was in."
"My OB told me I'd need a hospital stay and 6 weeks off work. Dr. Barfield's team had me home in 2 hours. I was back at my desk in 10 days. Absolute game changer."
"I drove from out of state for this. After three consultations elsewhere — all recommending open surgery — Dr. Barfield did mine laparoscopically, same day. Worth every mile."
From routine cases to the complex ones other surgeons turn away — we handle them all, minimally invasively.
Even large fibroids that cause pain, heavy bleeding, or pressure. We routinely perform minimally invasive hysterectomies on cases other providers say require open surgery.

Request second opinion →Since 2006, Dr. Barfield has dedicated his practice to one mission: giving women access to the most advanced minimally invasive gynecologic surgery available — without the burden of a hospital stay. He co-founded the Georgia Advanced Surgery Center for Women to make outpatient hysterectomy accessible to all patients, including those with complex conditions that most surgeons refuse to take on laparoscopically.
His track record speaks for itself: thousands of procedures, a 99%+ minimally invasive rate, and thousands of women home by lunch.
