Procedures Performed

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

Gastroenterology (GI Surgery)6
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.

Everybody there was very kind and pleasant, especially my nurse. She's paid special attention to any of my needs and answered all my questions. And can't say enough about my doctor.

The surgery center is clean, comfortable and Melanie my nurse was just a doll. She was happy she made me feel comfortable and happy, especially you know when you don’t feel well and it’s cold out and I’ve been preparing for a colonoscopy. She was really a blessing.

I arrived on time and turned in my info package at the desk and patiently waited for my turn, although a little anxious for the procedure. The nurses and anesthesiologist are super friendly, very well informed as to the procedure involved. They quickly answering any doubts I may have had. They did their best to keep me comfortable and warm prior to, and after the procedure. The attention to detail made my experience very easy and painless. They also used humor to gain my confidence and ease...I love them for that !!!

From the moment I walked in everyone was kind, professional, and very courteous. There was a little wait, but there was a complication and I understood it. Thank you so much to the nurses and anesthesiologist for all the care you gave me and to doctor Turse who took the time and explained everything to me. I appreciate his patience with me because it took me a moment to come out of anesthesia, but all is well thank you, you are the best.
