Procedures Performed

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

Ophthalmology (Eye Surgery)6
Cataract SurgeryThe clouded natural lens of the eye is removed and replaced with a clear artificial one. It is one of the most common outpatient procedures performed in the country, usually takes under 30 minutes per eye, and is done under light sedation with numbing drops rather than general anesthesia.LASIK / Refractive SurgeryA laser reshapes the cornea to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism, reducing dependence on glasses or contacts. The procedure itself takes minutes per eye. Vision is often noticeably better within a day, though it can take several weeks to fully stabilize.Glaucoma SurgeryCreates a new drainage path for fluid inside the eye to lower internal pressure. Glaucoma damages the optic nerve silently, so the goal is preventing further vision loss rather than restoring vision already lost. Several minimally invasive options are now performed in outpatient settings.Retinal SurgeryRepairs the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye, most often for a detached or torn retina, or for bleeding related to diabetes. Timing matters — a detaching retina is treated urgently because delay increases the risk of permanent vision loss.Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)Removes excess skin and fat from the upper or lower eyelids. When drooping upper lids block part of the visual field, the procedure is functional rather than cosmetic and is often covered by insurance if visual field testing documents the obstruction.Corneal TransplantReplaces damaged or clouded corneal tissue with donor tissue. Modern techniques often replace only the affected layer rather than the full thickness, which shortens recovery. Vision improves gradually over months, and stitches may stay in place for a year or longer.
Otolaryngology (ENT Surgery)6
Tonsillectomy / AdenoidectomyThe tonsils and sometimes the adenoids are removed for repeated infections or sleep-disordered breathing. Recovery is notably harder for adults than children, with significant throat pain for a week or more and a real emphasis on staying hydrated.Ear Tube PlacementTiny tubes are placed through the eardrum to drain fluid and ventilate the middle ear, most often for children with recurrent ear infections. The procedure takes about 10 minutes and the tubes usually fall out on their own within a year.Sinus Surgery (FESS)A camera and instruments passed through the nostrils open blocked sinus drainage pathways, with no external incisions. Considered for chronic sinusitis that has not improved with medication. Congestion often worsens briefly before it improves.SeptoplastyThe wall of cartilage and bone between the nostrils is straightened to improve airflow through a blocked side. It addresses breathing rather than external appearance, though it is sometimes combined with cosmetic reshaping.Turbinate ReductionSwollen tissue inside the nose is shrunk to improve airflow, frequently at the same time as septoplasty. Often the difference between a nose that is structurally straight and one that actually feels open.LaryngoscopyA scope examines the voice box and vocal cords, used for persistent hoarseness, difficulty swallowing, or throat pain that has not resolved. Small lesions can sometimes be biopsied or removed during the same procedure.
Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery6
Breast Augmentation / ReductionBreast size is increased by placing implants, or decreased by removing breast tissue and skin and repositioning the remaining tissue. Reduction is often performed to relieve back, neck, and shoulder pain caused by breast weight.RhinoplastySurgery that reshapes the nose by altering the bone and cartilage beneath the skin. It is performed to change appearance, to correct breathing problems caused by internal structure, or both. Swelling takes months to fully resolve.FaceliftLiposuctionFat is suctioned out from beneath the skin through small tubes called cannulas, reshaping a specific area such as the abdomen, flanks, or thighs. It targets localized deposits and is a contouring procedure rather than a method of weight loss.Wound ReconstructionRebuilds skin and underlying tissue where a wound is too large or too damaged to close directly. Surgeons move nearby tissue, or transfer skin and muscle from elsewhere on the body, to cover the defect. Often follows trauma, infection, or cancer removal.Skin GraftingHealthy skin is taken from one area of the body and transplanted to cover a wound or burn elsewhere. Both the graft site and the donor site need care, and the donor site is often the more uncomfortable of the two.

I am about 8 days post op for surgery. I had the honor of being cared for by Dr. Jeffrey Cutler. He was so inviting and caring from the second he greeted me! I honestly was so scared but I knew what needed to be done. I am almost there to a full recovery. I had a tonsillectomy and a septoplasty and if it weren't for the striking pain, I'd say I'm in great shape and have never felt better!!! I wanna thank the whole team! Thank you Kelcey for being so sweet and motherly. You are so kind and fun. Shannon is a peach! Bridgette is hilarious! Andee is the heart! ❤️ thank you guys so much!!! You guys made me feel so well cared for! God bless!!

I had the most amazing sinus surgery with Dr. Cutler. I had heard other wonderful things about him from other Dr.'s so I felt safe. The surgery was so fast, I came out of the ansteatia quite fast. And I didn't have any pain. I felt so pampered by every nurse that took care of me from the beginning to the end. It was an amazing surgery all in all.

I was there for a 4 hour surgery last Feb. 7th, and I had a wonderful experience with the nurses. Nurse Karen and nurse Courtney were very caring and they helped me the best way they possibly could. I’ve never experienced such outstanding care like this before. They went above and beyond in helping me and cleaning me up and making sure that I am not in tremendous pain before I leave the hospital. Nurse Courtney made sure that I have all I need and what I might need when I get home. They’re very patient with me and I can feel their genuine care. I hope they see this so they know how grateful I am for all their help.

Harvard Park Surgery Center and Dr. Jacobs did a wonderful job with my cataract surgery and in dealing with an issue with my retina. The front office staff were helpful and professional. The wait times were low. The operating staff were very competent, professional and pleasant to work with. I highly recommend Harvard Park Surgery Center.

I've had to go here twice over the years for various proceedures. I've found everyone here, receptionists, nursing staff, and anesthesiology, to be absolutely top drawer. Efficient, polite, knowledgeable, patient and pleasant. My procedure was right on time, in fact I got out early. The center seems clean and well cared for, perhaps a bit cluttered in places, but very easy in and out, parking, etc. Not the most upscale looking, a little tired looking like most of these type of facilities, but definitely above average. If you need to have a procedure done here, you are in good hands.
