We perform a few surgical cases involving ingrown toenails and a few soft tissue problems (e.g biopsies) in our office. However, the majority of our surgical procedures are performed in an outpatient (day surgery) setting at a hospital or ambulatory surgery center. Dr. Fjelstad is on staff at Minnesota Valley Surgery Center (Burnsville), Centennial Lakes Surgery Center (Edina), and Ritchie Day Surgery Center. (St. Paul). In some cases, Dr. Fjelstad will perform surgery that requires an in hospital stay (Diabetic foot infection).
