Procedures Performed

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

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.
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.
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.

Kind staff. Excellent nurses and anesthesiologists. They were very professional and explained every step of the way. Would highly recommend. Maybe not on a Monday though. It was extremely busy and my surgery scheduled for 9 didn't happen until after 1030. The professionalism and care made the wait easier to endure.

Had a colonoscopy there in May 2022. All paperwork was done and it’s closed in my mind. January 2025, out of the blue, they send a bill for $265. I call and do the leave a callback number and, of course, they never call. I write a note on the bill asking questions about an almost 3 year old procedure. No response. February 2025 out pops the same bill. Same no call back dance. March, out pops another $265invoice. This time I did get a call back. They said they were out of network for my insurance so too bad for me. I have never received anything from my insurance saying they were contacted - even out of network they would have paid 80%. A whole lot of incompetence and flat out lying coming out of that place. Sounds like they fire out bills referring to old (almost 3 years old) procedures hoping x number of people will just pay them without questioning. Fraud, incompetence, or something else - they are all bad. Told them I’d pay them in 3 years. This place is owned by doctors that do all of their surgery there! Add blatant conflict of interest to fraud and incompetence and if your doctor says they will do your procedure at Atlantic Surgery Center …

I had a procedure performed here and I can't say enough good things about Dr. DeCarli and the staff at Atlantic Surgery Center. The nice check in lady at the front desk was very polite and efficient. I was taken in right on time, which is very rare now-a-days and much appreciated. The bedside manner and professionalism from Lexi and the other nurse's was very re-assuring. Dr. DeCarli went over the results with me personally post op. If you ever have to have something done at this facility, rest assured that it will be handled in the best possible manner. Thank you to the entire staff and Dr. DeCarli. Five stars from me!

Worst experience ever. If you have a choice to choose which surgery center to go do not go here. They don't call you with time of surgery until you call them. They don't call you when you they are running behind. I waited almost two hours before my scheduled procedure before they take your vitals and put iN IV. Then after waiting there almost two hours they say we need to reschedule because your procedure is not as severe as the one after you so they won't have time to do your procedure. Nurses have no real empathy and the manager was not empathetic when he told me that I needed to go reschedule. Waste of a PTO for myself and my ride because we will never get this day back.
