For Children

Helping children understand their surgery 
Knowing what to expect and being familiar with the surgery process makes the entire process less frightening for children. That’s why children scheduled for outpatient surgery and their families are invited to take a tour to learn what to expect. This is not a replacement for a pre-surgery evaluation. Please check with your child's doctor if you have questions. 

  • If your child is having outpatient surgery at the Asheville Surgery Center, please call 828-213-0740, or visit the Pediatric Surgery page for more information on what to expect.
  • If your child is having surgery at Mission Hospital, contact Mission Children's Hospital for a tour by calling 828-213-8302.
