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.
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.

This facility is excellent! The staff is very kind, pleasant, and helpful. Everyone is efficient and very professional. I’ve been there three times and I’m baffled by the negative reviews. I think some people are just grumpy at any medical appointment and take it out in a review.

I had a procedure on 10/21/25. The staff was exceptional. I especially want to compliment the nursing staff. Nurse Wendy was very helpful, efficient, courteous, and put me at ease before and after the procedure. And of course, Dr Bloom, who I come to Florida from snow country, the only doctor I truly trust. Kudos for your expert staffing. I highly recommend this facility for any and all surgeries, the facility is spotless and impressive.

I recently had a procedure done at the Coral Ridge Outpatient Facility by Dr. Hotte. The entire staff from receptionist, nurses in pre-op ( Tina and Kevin)…anesthesiologist, nurse anesthetist, post-op staff and of course Dr. Hotte were so professional, kind and reassuring. The facility is clean, well staffed and everything ran right on time. It was a very positive experience and I would highly recommend it to anyone in need of their services!

From the Gals at the front desk to all the Nurses and wonderful Staff, my time at CROC made the awkward procedures like a walk in the park. Kathy, Christina and Diana made sure post opp was comfortable. Cowboy Hats off also to the Doctors.
