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.

I had an upper bletharoplasty at this surgery center by Dr. Houlihan from Chico Eye Center. I was nervous at first but the staff made it seem so easy! They were all very professional and caring. I would highly recommend it.

I recently had a procedure done at Advanced Eye Surgery. The facility was clean and had plenty of parking. The waiting room was comfortable. The staff was polite, professional and caring. They made sure I was comfortable and took care of my concerns. I needed a driver after the procedure. The staff kept her informed which made my departure quick and easy.

I had a very good experience. This was my first cataract surgery. The office staff were all welcoming, professional & very nice, and they went out of their way to work with my insurance. The medical staff were friendly, well skilled, informative & comforting. The wait time that I experienced seemed normal from my check-in to being back in my car was 1.5 hours. All of the other patients seemed happy as well. Thank you, Advanced Eye Surgery Center, for making my experience as smooth as possible… See you in two weeks for my other eye =)

In waiting room over 45 minutes. Very rude staff. Every one that went in had someone with them. But they wouldn't allow me to go in with my blind husband. Because the room was small! That's offensive. I won't ever utilize this place again.
