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 have had 2 surgeries here (left hip in January and neck surgery on Wednesday 12/3) I thank Dr. Herrema for the great job on my left hip and Dr. Davidson for the great job on my neck. I am 2 days out from a 2 level neck surgery and feel pretty darn good. Wonderful physicians and extraordinary nurses and anesthesiologists at the surgery center! I can’t say enough about the support provided at the surgery center - the names I remember are Kelsey, Michelle & Mary so thank you to them and anyone else who took care of me! See you again next year for my right hip! Sue Fredrickson ❤️

I'm not necessarily wanting to have more surgeries, but having them here if I needed to would be best. I had back surgery at TBJSSC in Feb. '24 and can't say enough good things about the experience. From the facility itself to the team to the commitment to patient comfort, 5 stars is not enough. Thank you!

I had a revision surgery of my 10 year old Right Total knee on 11/16/22, by Dr. Herrema. I can’t say enough about how professional and well I was treated, and how I felt after the procedure. The Anesthesia group was fun and so professional and very caring and concerned about my Apnea condition- Anyway- ASHLEY, SUE, MARY, JASON, MELISSA, ANGELA and ANDREA! Thank you so much! NUTTER BUTTERS are the best! Thank you owners and directors for the best care ever!

I just had total knee replacement done to my left knee, and could not be any happier with my decision to pick TBJ&S for the surgery. The staff was very professional and compassionate and they made me feel at ease from beginning and to the end of my surgery
