CONSTITUTION SURGERY CENTER EAST LLC

What CONSTITUTION SURGERY CENTER EAST LLC does

Constitution Surgery Center East LLC operates a single multi-specialty outpatient ambulatory surgery center at 140 Cross Road, Waterford, Connecticut, serving patients in the New England region. Founded in 2001 and relocated to a purpose-built 19,000 sq. ft. facility in November 2017, the center delivers four surgical service lines — ophthalmic, orthopedic, urologic, and podiatric surgery — supported by a dedicated anesthesia team (anesthesiologists and CRNAs overseen by anesthesia physicians) and staffed by registered nurses and certified surgical technologists. The facility holds concurrent AAAHC accreditation, Medicare certification, and a Connecticut state license, and its physicians are board-certified or board-eligible in their respective specialties.

The company's revenue model is built on per-procedure facility fees billed to patients and payers for use of the surgical facility, nursing staff, and surgical technologists; professional services performed by the affiliated surgeons, anesthesiologists, radiologists, and pathologists are billed separately by those practitioners. Patient acquisition is driven primarily by a physician-referral network anchored on regional practices including Norwich Orthopedic Group, Orthopedic Partners, Shoreline Eye Group, and Norwich Ophthalmology Group, supplemented by direct patient inquiries via phone and the company website (csceast.com). The center markets itself as a more convenient and cost-effective alternative to traditional hospital-based outpatient surgery, emphasizing shorter wait times, personalized attention, and accredited quality.

Operationally, the center is owned in part by affiliated physicians (e.g., Ammar Anbari MD, Kevin Cranmer MD, Francis Falck MD) and governed by a Board of Managers under a parent holding company, Constitution Surgical Alliance LLC, with Dwayne Kertanis serving as Senior Vice President of Operations. Technology infrastructure is limited to conventional clinical equipment, a content-driven website, and an online bill-payment portal; there is no disclosed AI/ML capability, mobile application, or external API surface. The facility is actively operating under Connecticut regulatory oversight and serves as a single-site ASC within a multi-entity alliance.
