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.

It is difficult when reviewing not to "Bottom Out" or to "Totally Rave" about a Business. I want my reviews to be honest, and to openly reflect my experience at said venue. I'll start by saying that I gave five stars to Marion Surger Center for a variety of reasons. I read all of MSC's reviews and found that those who posted 4 or 5 star reviews were actual Patients who underwent procedures. The lesser rated reviews all seemed to come from Escorts to the procedures, and almost all were related to time or to attitude. I do not place value on petty issues, ever. I place a high value on what the Patients undergoing procedures have to say about the care that they received and how they perceived the staffs attitudes and well, who matters more? Does the Escort matter? Does the Patient matter? As the Patient in this review, I can safely say that the Patient matters more. Time is irrelevant when undergoing the type procedure that I had done. I didn't want anyone to rush through their assigned tasks, and I don't believe anyone did. I went to MSC to be made as close to "whole" as could be, if this eats away at the clock, so be it. I'll start with the call I received the day before my Surgery from Kraigen, who was to become my pre-op nurse. Professional, Personable and Detail Oriented is she. I was completely comfortable heading to MSC the following day, Thanks to Kraigen. Her care, as my Pre-Op Nurse at the Center, was nothing short of Perfection. In fact it seems that Perfection is a word that I must echo over and over, as each team member seemed to personify this trait! 5 Stars to Kerri and Emily my OR and Post-Op Nurses. Perfect execution of their tasks made my procedure bearable. Five Stars to Olivia the Surgical Technician. Perfect. Jared, my procedures Anesthetist, was more than Professional and Personable, he was Perfect in his duties, Thank You Jared! Finally, I come to the Surgeon, Dr. Farr. He and Quint, the ARNP, performed their duties Skillfully, and with Surgical Precision. Dr .Farr, I Thank You. Thank You for making me to feel comfortable with who you are and what you bring, literally, to the table! I highly recommend Marion Surgery Center, a Five Rating for a Five Star Facility, from a Patients perspective!

I just had total knee replacement surgery Thursday here. I can’t say enough great things about everyone I dealt with… Front desk, all the nurses, anesthesiologists and associates, and a wonderful Dr. Farr and OR staff. So kind, so respectful! 💕

I had a procedure done at the MSC yesterday and it was a friendly, caring, and quick experience. Starting with the phone call the day prior to set the report time (Kerri), I can't say enough about how caring the staff is. Receptionist Whisper, Admin Nicole, Nurses Melanie, and Jess (OR) were extremely professional and kindhearted (especially considering my early hour and coffee-less state). My anesthesiologist (Dr. Moore) could not have been better in answering questions and leading me into small talk that helped me to focus on something other than the unknown and anxiety. Dr. Farr, the surgeon, and Quint both came in to see me prior to the procedure, and they were both positive and happy to help me, explaining in detail how and what they were going to do. I could not ask for a better team! This morning I am feeling much better as a result of yesterday's procedure. Thank you Dr. Farr, Quint, and the MSC staff!

From the moment we walked through the door to the time we left, everyone was excellent! Kerri and Beth & Olivia were all friendly, caring and so understanding. I have a great deal of anxiety in a hospital setting and they made me feel at ease; even went so far as to hold my hand until I was out. Thank you all for everything!!
