Procedures Performed

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

Orthopaedic Surgery6
Knee ArthroscopyA camera and small instruments are inserted through incisions the size of a buttonhole to repair cartilage, trim a torn meniscus, or remove loose fragments. Because the joint is not opened fully, recovery is far faster than traditional open knee surgery.Shoulder ArthroscopyUses a small camera and instruments through tiny incisions to repair the shoulder joint — commonly for impingement, labral tears, or damaged cartilage. Most patients go home the same day and begin physical therapy within the first week.ACL ReconstructionRebuilds the torn anterior cruciate ligament using a graft, since a fully torn ACL does not heal on its own. The surgery itself is outpatient, but returning to cutting and pivoting sports typically takes nine to twelve months of structured rehabilitation.Rotator Cuff RepairReattaches torn tendons in the shoulder to the bone. Pain relief often comes well before strength does — a sling is typical for several weeks and full recovery commonly takes four to six months, with physical therapy doing much of the work.Carpal Tunnel ReleaseCuts the ligament pressing on the median nerve at the wrist to relieve numbness, tingling, and night pain in the hand. The procedure takes about 15 minutes under local anesthesia. Night symptoms often improve immediately; grip strength returns over several weeks.Joint ReplacementDamaged joint surfaces are replaced with implants, most commonly at the knee or hip. Once exclusively a hospital procedure, selected healthy patients now have this done at surgery centers and go home the same day with a structured recovery plan.
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.
Podiatry (Foot & Ankle Surgery)6
Bunion Correction (Bunionectomy)The bony prominence at the base of the big toe is removed and the bone realigned, often with screws or plates. Recovery involves weeks in a protective shoe or boot, and swelling can persist for several months.Hammertoe CorrectionA toe permanently bent at the middle joint is straightened, sometimes with a temporary pin holding the correction. Considered when the toe rubs painfully in shoes or has developed calluses and sores.Plantar Fascia ReleaseThe tight band of tissue along the bottom of the foot is partially released to relieve stubborn heel pain. Reserved for cases that have not improved after months of stretching, orthotics, and other conservative treatment.Ankle ArthroscopyA small camera and instruments treat problems inside the ankle joint — impingement, loose fragments, or damaged cartilage — through incisions a few millimeters wide, avoiding a larger open exposure.Ingrown Toenail RemovalThe edge of a nail growing into the surrounding skin is removed under local anesthesia. When the problem keeps recurring, the nail-forming tissue at that edge is also treated so it does not grow back.Foot Fracture RepairBroken bones in the foot are realigned and stabilized with hardware so they heal in position. Because the foot bears your full weight with every step, alignment matters more here than the small bone size suggests.

We all experience differently. My experience after having a procedure done here was the best I've ever had from any hospital stays. I spent the entire day here, and the ppl were all so kind, attentive, and professional. Honestly, throughout my lifetime I've been hospitalized many times, and I and never seen medical staff so kind. There were two nurses that should take a bow. Christina she is the nicest, sweetest nurse I've ever met. The other nurse Narghis the other over the top nurse. These women are keepers. She even called to she how I was doing a couple days later "who does that". So, based on my experience at Redwood Surgery Ctr they should refresher courses to other facilities in patient care. It's sad that service can't happen like this everywhere. This is the way is supposed to be. Thank you Redwood you got the right team❤️.

I was hesitant to give this place 5 stars because the wait times are pretty rough, and the double booking can be frustrating. I was booked for an 11:45am appt and wasn’t seen till around 1pm ish. I even considered canceling my appointment and going elsewhere. BUT I’m so glad I stuck it out because the staff here is absolutely amazing. Julia was incredibly kind, John who drew my blood was sweet, Dr. Khosla was super cool, and Violet was just on another level, so compassionate, hilarious, and full of warmth. Her energy feels like one big hug! I came in for PRP injections after a car accident, and the procedure itself was quick, easy, and surprisingly comfortable thanks to their care. If you can handle the wait, the staff and treatment make it 100% worth it.

This is my 3rd time coming in and it’s the 2nd time waiting well over an hour for an APPOINTMENT THAT ALREADY HAD A SET TIME. The 1st time I waited 1.5 hours for my own appointment and this time around I am waiting 2.5 hours for my mom to be seen since I had to drive her here. Luckily today I got seen briefly. If you want something convenient & not to feel like you to the patient are doing all of the legwork, then go somewhere else. I have much more important things to be doing with my time

I took time off work to come here for my mom's procedure and waited 2 hours. The front desk said it would be an additional 2 hour wait which is ridiculous and unacceptable. I'm literally paying cash and I have an appointment and i cannot believe how unprofessional this place is. Maybe book a manageable amount of patients? I'm glad I left immediately and I'm never coming back

I have gone to the center a few times for lower back injections. I get sedation when I get the shots. One of the first questions asked when doing a shot is when. was the last time you ate or drank. It’s important because you can’t eat or drink so many hours prior to the shot . The last two times I went there they did not ask me this important question. They work primarily for lawyers and they have you in and out very fast. They are somewhat negligent for not asking me this . What if I didn’t know and had eaten a mean prior to coming in? I think it could be really bad mixing food and sedation.
