Procedures Performed

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

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.
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.
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.

Was originally told that my insurance authorization went through and that there would be no out-of-pocket expenses on my end; however, just three days before my surgical date they called me saying I had to pay a $3200 fee or else my surgery would be canceled. I was never explained what this cost was for. When asked for payment options/ financial help they referred me to a credit website with extremely high interest rates and told me that was my only option. Really bummer experience and would definitely do my research before having a surgery here.

I can't say enough good things about Post Street Surgical Center. Everything from checking-in, surgery, to after-care is such a comforting and easy process. I didn’t have any issues with insurance or billing. The cost and explanations were provided to me in writing well in advance of the surgery date. But, the best thing about Post Street is the nurses and staff that work there. I appreciate everyone of them for being such kind and amazing people.

I was told they would not do the surgery because my insurance was notorious for not paying. I paid 19K up front which was due back should my insurance pay. Eventually my insurance paid 12k. They refused to give me any amount back stating that my insurance didn't pay for "all the codes". Is this not illegal?

They gave me a non-finalized explanation of benefits and my procedure was going to cost significantly less than I had worried. The procedure went without a hitch and all staff were gracious to me, No word yet from my insurance when I finally pay.

They asked me for 11k up front the day of surgery just for the facility fee. Then told me they refused to do my surgery unless I paid at least $3,000 of it. I have never heard of a facility trying to bill a customer without going through insurance first in network or not. My out of pocket max out of network was 8.5k so that 11k they asked for was flat out of nowhere. Now they are asking my insurance for $40,000 and not citing that I paid the $3,000 at all. They are also not giving me an itemized bill, and only listing "outpatient surgery" 5 times They were also rushing me because the anesthesiologist was ready to put me under and they were trying to pressure me to pay them this random 11k out of pocket. Please do not pay them up front, there is something wrong here.
