Procedures Performed

Common outpatient procedures performed at this ambulatory surgery center, based on reported specialties.

Interventional Pain Management6
Epidural Steroid InjectionsSteroid medication is injected near irritated spinal nerve roots to calm inflammation causing sciatica or arm pain. Often used to make physical therapy tolerable rather than as a standalone cure. There are limits on how frequently they can be repeated.Nerve Block InjectionsAnesthetic, sometimes with steroid, is injected around a specific nerve to interrupt pain signals. Used both to treat pain and to identify its source, since relief from a precisely placed block points to the nerve responsible.Radiofrequency AblationHeat generated by radio waves disables the small nerves carrying pain signals from an arthritic spinal joint. Relief commonly lasts six months to two years. Because the nerves regenerate over time, the procedure can be repeated.Spinal Cord StimulationA device delivers mild electrical pulses to the spinal cord to interrupt chronic pain signals before they reach the brain. A temporary trial period is done first, so you can judge the benefit before committing to a permanent implant.Joint InjectionsSteroid or lubricating medication is injected directly into an arthritic or inflamed joint. Image guidance is often used to confirm placement. Relief typically lasts weeks to months and can make physical therapy more productive.Trigger Point InjectionsA local anesthetic is injected into a taut, tender knot of muscle to break the spasm-and-pain cycle. The appointment takes minutes and you can usually return to normal activity the same day.

Worst service! We have been here twice and same experience (I accompanied a patient). They ask you to get there 30 minutes early and then make you wait over an hour from your appointment time. We waited for 2 hours. These poor patients are literally in a pain center… everyone is so uncomfortable and they have to wait for so long. I feel like they are taking advantage of their pain. What other choice do they have but to wait? I think the worst part is the lack of empathy. Go somewhere else if you can! To the employees of this place… do better. I asked if this was a regular occurrence and they said that it was and no matter what time you schedule you will have to wait over an hour. If you know this is a thing… fix your scheduling!

Staff here are phenomenal! Special praise for Mia who placed my IV. I’ve had dozens, always extremely painful for me, she did so completely painlessly. I strongly urge patients to request her if possible. Thank you you all for your kindness, and Mia for your expertise!

Doctors and staff members are amazing except one. I believe she is director of nurses, cant recall her name but i took my mother for her procedure and this woman was very unprofessional towards her peers, i felt so uncomfortable to hear from from the closed curtain. I noticed she would speak negatively towards externs who i thought gave amazing care towards my mother. My mother couldnt stop talking about how wonderful Cathy was...she calls her little miss dynamite because her personalty and compassion beamed so brightly that made my anxious mother felt so relaxed and safe. Thank you Az Surgical Specialist of west Phoenix for the amazing job you did and special thanks to Cathy for your wonderful heart of gold and helping me get my mom in the car!

Not knowledgeable in service animal laws and pretty much kicked me out of the lobby/ waiting room because I had a "dog". No I had no plans to go into the surgical suits I was simply waiting on my mom and denied access to the LOBBY because they have had trouble in the past with dogs.
