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.
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.

My Husband had Hip replacement surgery in June, the ASC was wonderful!! Everyone was great! Very professional but also caring. The center was very clean and had everything He needed. Also called to make sure he was doing well several times!! They were very helpful. I highly recommend the ASC Stamford CT. Dr. Held from ONS was great!!! Very caring for his patients!

First, the energy of the staff is beautiful and you notice this fact the moment you open the office door. Now I must say not a fan of surgery or going under the knife as they say but if I had to do it all again ( And GOD, I repeat I don't..) BUT if so.... I can only look forward to having this same welcoming experience because the Stamford ACS staff and Dr. Wei have set the bar. Thank you very much for taking of me.

Had Spine epidural there yesterday. I was treated with amazing care and outstanding professionalism. Christine at the front desk was lovely and extended herself making sure we were comfortable and tracking my procedure and calling my son to keep him informed as to my pick up. She is a most definite asset to ASC.!!!!!!

Clean, modern, and within walking distance from Stamford station or about eight dollars by cab. Nice doctors and staff! Good ambience. Nice bright carpeted waiting room with coffee, tea, fridge, soft chairs, chargers, magazines and a large Sony TV. Convenient parking.

My father was scheduled for his toe amputation at 1:30pm. He wasn’t taken in til 2:15. Then we had to wait for his procedure until 4:15pm. The nurses here were very unprofessional and condescending. My father had his toe amputated and I had a few questions about his care and what would be best. One nurse blatantly said “well maybe you should have a family discussion about it in the car.” Excuse me but YOU’RE supposed to be the professionals and know what is best. Not me. Then while wheeling him out they said to bring the car around. That’s fine. I asked which side of the building and where exactly. They didn’t know. So we try one side. They said they wouldn’t let patients out that way even though there were clear doors and access to that side of the building. We try to go around to where they want and they stop us because all of a sudden it’s ok to pick my father up on that side. I will never come back here ever. If he needs something else amputated I’ll be going someplace else.
