Outsourced Surgical Assistant Staffing

Because every patient deserves a complete surgical team, we exist to put skilled, trusted surgical assistants in every operating room that needs one.
Surgikal Assistants, Inc. is the largest provider of outsourced surgical assisting services in the state of Illinois and the third largest in the country, with more than 48 contracted facilities. Unlike staffing companies that offer surgical assistants as one small piece of a broader portfolio alongside neuromonitoring, nursing, surgical techs, perfusion, or sterile processing; surgical assistant coverage is the only service we provide, 24 hours a day, every day of the year. When measured against companies that share that same singular focus, we are one of the largest surgical assistant only provider in the country.
We were established in 2021 to promote the highest professional standards in the operating room. The idea was based on a unique concept of aligning surgical first assistants with client facilities and surgeons. Outsourced services offer a cost effective alternative to assistant surgeons or hospital and practice employed surgical assistants. Our founders have been providing surgical assistant services to hospitals and surgeons nationwide since 1997.
That exclusive focus shapes everything about how we operate. Because surgical assisting is not a minor line item within a larger staffing portfolio, we recruit, train, and credential with a depth and consistency that generalist staffing companies cannot match.
Surgikal Assistants, Inc. provides both first and second surgical assisting services. Our staff surgical assistants are proficient in the latest laparoscopic, robotic, microscopic, and open techniques.
