Procedures Performed

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

ColonoscopyA flexible camera examines the full length of the colon to screen for cancer and remove polyps before they become cancerous. Done under sedation, it typically takes 30 to 60 minutes. The bowel prep the day before is the part most patients find hardest.Upper Endoscopy (EGD)A thin camera passed through the mouth examines the esophagus, stomach, and the first part of the small intestine. Used to investigate persistent heartburn, difficulty swallowing, unexplained bleeding, or abdominal pain. Usually takes 15 to 30 minutes under sedation.Flexible SigmoidoscopyExamines the lower portion of the colon only, rather than its full length. Preparation is lighter than a full colonoscopy and sedation is sometimes unnecessary, but it cannot detect problems higher in the colon.Capsule EndoscopyYou swallow a vitamin-sized camera that photographs the small intestine as it passes through — a region that standard scopes cannot easily reach. There is no sedation and no recovery. The capsule passes naturally, and images are reviewed after the fact.ERCPCombines endoscopy and X-ray imaging to diagnose and treat blockages in the bile and pancreatic ducts, most often gallstones stuck in a duct. Unlike a routine endoscopy, it carries a meaningful risk of pancreatitis afterward, so it is used when treatment is likely rather than for screening alone.Hemorrhoid TreatmentShrinks or removes swollen veins in the rectum and anus using rubber band ligation, injection, or surgical removal depending on severity. Banding is quick and typically requires no anesthesia; surgical removal is more effective for advanced cases but recovery is noticeably more uncomfortable.

No follow up after procedure, phone contact and follow up horrible. My understanding is after procedure the doctor or staff member speak with you about what was found and what happens next. None of this was done. I find this appalling.

I had my colonoscopy on Christmas Eve first thing in the morning. I am grateful for no pain or memory of the procedure, and no post op complications other than the best 24 hour sleep I have had in a long time. My doctor Susie Kohn reviewed my results after the procedure and thanked me for doing a clean prep. The best Christmas present is news that I am healthy!

These folks always take great care of me. Dr. Stollman is caring and informative and the whole staff is prompt and considerate. They have been taking good care of me for over ten years and I will keep on going back for treatment when necessary.

Dr. Chard is the best! He’s caring and always tells me right away the results of the tests. I’ve been going to him for over 10 years. The endoscopy center is clean and efficient.

I was in for an upper endoscopy. I had a positive experience with the entire staff. Dr. Stollman is incredible with excellent bedside manner and makes you feel comfortable throughout the process.
