Procedures Performed

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

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.

I had a great experience from start to finish. From the very first call to schedule my appointment, everything was smooth and welcoming. Check-in was easy, and the nurses, doctor, and anesthesiologist were all professional, friendly, and reassuring. I felt well cared for every step of the way. I highly recommend this office!! Thank you!!

Plan accordingly! Appt was at 11 am, I waited 3 1/2 hrs but once in the back it was smooth sailing. The ladies are the sweetest and most helpful. Starting with Naika and Kathy who were professional and funny so you forget the wait time to waking up and having Sheri's (Lady in Purple) warm hands and Mariann to know your done and can go grab food. Also Staci and Claudia in the front who are doing their best at keeping you updated so y'all behave. Thank you and see you in 10 yrs 🙏

Staff is amazing. The schedule was a little behind but the experience was pleasant. Staci at check in was quick and dealt with complaints about the schedule calmly and professionally. Sheri in Pre op was kind,, personable and easy going. Jessica in the OR was kind. Dr. Woody, anesthesiologist, was friendly, quick, and easy going. Mary Kay in Post Op was calm and thoroughly explained things, and made sure all was well. Overall, a great experience.

I had a great experience at the Surgery Center of Lakeland Hills Boulevard for my colonoscopy yesterday. From start to finish, the entire process was seamless and stress-free. Everyone on the team was incredibly professional, kind, and accommodating. A special thanks to Marianne (Pre-op RN), Dr. Woody, and Glenda (Post-op) for their excellent care. They were happy to explain every step of the procedure, which made me feel comfortable and well-informed.
