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.
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.

The Outpatient Center is a fraud. My insurance entitles me to a free colonoscopy. Next thing I know I received two bills from different companies over $600.00. The Billing department has the worse payment plan and won't help with a payment plan if the balance is $61.00 or less. I didn't received the January bill in the mail so I called about it. I got a hold of someone by the name of Ann in the billing department and her level of professionalism was extremely poor. She was completely rude and unprofessional. I tried to make a payment and she did not want to accept the amount I was trying to pay, and send my account to a Debt collection company, "Transworld System Inc (TSI) while I was on the phone with her because I couldn't make a full payment of $46.50. Ann transferred my call to TSI to make the payment. Some of us are doing the best we can. DO NOT USE THIS CENTER FOR ANYTHING. I advise anyone going there to get EVERYTHING in writing. They truly scammed me!

I can not say enough good things about The Outpatient Center. Absolutely professional, clean, friendly, attentive. I could go on but truly, if you have to have a procedure there, know you are in good hands.

If one must go through a procedure, this is definely where you want to go. The staff was amazing, gentle, professional, truly caring. My physician, Dr. Rubin is the best in his field and there were other patients envious that I was seeing him and they were not.

I called three weeks before my colonoscopy to try to schedule the first appointment of the morning. Unfortunately, the receptionist was extremely abrasive and short with me, showing no compassion or concern for my needs. She came across as arrogant and seemed to dislike her job. It was clear she had no understanding of the stress and anxiety that patients experience. In contrast, the staff in the prep area were fantastic. They helped alleviate my stress and anxiety, being friendly and attentive, which made me feel as relaxed as possible. However, the nurse in the procedure room was the exact opposite. She barked directions at me multiple times regarding my feet and my position on the bed, making me feel like a slab of beef. Nurses who behave like that should reconsider their career choices, as they seem to have forgotten why they became nurses in the first place—to help people. Given the nature of the procedure, I would have preferred modesty underwear, as it involves a highly sensitive area. This added another unnecessary layer of anxiety and stress. But you already know this; it seems you are more concerned with getting good reviews than with patient comfort.

I have had the unfortunate experience of being both an inpatient and outpatient at this hospital, and I have consistently found the level of professionalism to be extremely poor. The staff appear to have received little to no customer service training. Simple interactions are often marked by mumbling or unclear communication, which leaves patients feeling uninformed and unsupported. Appointments and procedures rarely run on time, resulting in long and frustrating waits with little explanation or apology. The physical environment only adds to the negative experience—the facility is visibly rundown, unkempt, and poorly maintained. Overall, this hospital fails to meet even the most basic standards of patient care, communication, and respect. Significant improvements in staff training, scheduling, and facility upkeep are urgently needed.
