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.
Bunion Correction (Bunionectomy)The bony prominence at the base of the big toe is removed and the bone realigned, often with screws or plates. Recovery involves weeks in a protective shoe or boot, and swelling can persist for several months.Hammertoe CorrectionA toe permanently bent at the middle joint is straightened, sometimes with a temporary pin holding the correction. Considered when the toe rubs painfully in shoes or has developed calluses and sores.Plantar Fascia ReleaseThe tight band of tissue along the bottom of the foot is partially released to relieve stubborn heel pain. Reserved for cases that have not improved after months of stretching, orthotics, and other conservative treatment.Ankle ArthroscopyA small camera and instruments treat problems inside the ankle joint — impingement, loose fragments, or damaged cartilage — through incisions a few millimeters wide, avoiding a larger open exposure.Ingrown Toenail RemovalThe edge of a nail growing into the surrounding skin is removed under local anesthesia. When the problem keeps recurring, the nail-forming tissue at that edge is also treated so it does not grow back.Foot Fracture RepairBroken bones in the foot are realigned and stabilized with hardware so they heal in position. Because the foot bears your full weight with every step, alignment matters more here than the small bone size suggests.

Just had hand surgery here , place was clean , front staff very nice and professional. Then was called , Nurse Monica was very professional , helped out and went over the key things a person should know . If I had to the other nurse’s names I would include them . The anesthesiologist from PR asked every question and assured all will be ok . After surgery I could not have asked for more helpful people , the nurse ( blondish color hair ) continued to check on how I was feeling etc . When it was time to be wheeled to the car , the gentleman was courteous and polite. Great experience! Thank you

This review is for the business in Suite #201 at The Gables Surgical Center. I had back surgery in April 2022 and I was very pleased throughout the entire process. I was the first patient to arrive, even before the staff. As they streamed in, the staff was polite and spoke, and seemed to have great energy. I was called in and prepped for surgery and noticed the facility is very thorough. The Doc, Dr. Roybal who also wrote his initials on my back, all the staff who would handle my surgery came by and introduced themselves as they were doing their checks. Checking and rechecking EVERYTHING at least 5 times I counted. Probably more, but I had started laughing a bit because I appreciated it so much. The staff was cheery and in a good mood which made me feel calmer. When I was taken to surgery they asked me what procedure I was having to make sure I know what was to happen before they put me to sleep. I had a Discectomy and a Laminectomy right where the last lumbar connects to the next part and It's L something and S something. The surgical center even called me a week later to see how I was doing! ---------------- To address some concerns from other bizarre reviews. ---------------- One review said the place was dirty. --- It was not filthy, even the public restroom on the 2nd floor was clean. It was definitely original from the 1970s. Looking old and looking dirty is not the same. Another review said disrespectful and drama. -- I did not experience that. I was in Suite #201, I cannot speak for other businesses. The reviewers should be more specific. Another review said The client service is terrible. -- I did not experience that. Another review said Administrator has no medical experience... etc... -- This review sounds like it's from a previous employee who is no longer with the company. A typical person doesn't say "Administrator", we call it a receptionist, and the State Department is going to be called? For surgery? Red Flag on that review.

Dirty place in a not so good area. Not what you want to see when dropping a loved one off for surgery. Staff is non communicative. My husband was supposed to be out in 2 hrs. I called to ask and they told me it would be two hours more. As this is happening in a lot of reviews this is their routine and no matter how many people they upset they don’t change their ways. Even 2 hrs later my husband was not released. I was told to wait in the parking lot which is really gross and no one should be left waiting in a parking lot. This place is like a third world country.

This place is beyond disrespectful and drama for days between themselves. The first time I came to have a procedure done I heard the nurses having drama between them in front of patients such as myself that are about to have surgery, then nurses complaining about forms they need to fill out now about hours and to top it off the anesthesiologist having a full blown argument on the phone in front of patients. The nurse even had to tell him keep it down and step away. Second time around my surgery was scheduled for 9:30am, came earlier by a few minutes (15min) to be exact, almost 3 hours later, empty stomach and I wasn’t being called. They are nice but they kill you with kindness and deceit. It’s almost as if they read a script they are given. If you can chose another location do so!! This is not the place unless you like to freely waste your time!! No Stars!!!!!
