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.
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.
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.

This facility avoids a one-star rating for exactly one reason: the operating room team responsible for my procedure. Dr. Perenich and the OR staff performed to an acceptable professional standard. That contribution alone prevents a total failure of the experience. All other aspects of care were objectively substandard. The coordination surrounding post-procedure transportation was poorly managed, and the nursing staff outside of the OR demonstrated a concerning lack of fundamental clinical competency. Establishing peripheral IV access in large, visible veins on a healthy, athletic patient should be routine. Instead, it became a prolonged and embarrassing display of repeated failure. This was not a difficult patient, an anatomical anomaly, or a time-critical emergency. It was a basic task performed poorly. For perspective, I regularly allow nursing students to place 18- and 20-gauge IVs without complication. The inability of licensed staff to do so—ultimately resorting to a 24-gauge—is not a matter of preference or caution; it reflects a skill gap that should not exist at this level of care. The experience was sufficiently deficient that I informed fellow nurses, not emotionally, but professionally. Situations like this should be reviewed for competency, not excused. Final rating: 3 stars, derived strictly from averaging performance. Without the OR team, this facility would receive one

This place is amazing. The nurses are so attentive to you. There's always at least 2 nurses by your side from what I saw when I was awake. 1 even held my hand. All of the staff there are quick, friendly, and straight to the point. Thank you ladies and gentlemen.

I was there monday june 9 for my first ever surgery and i was a little nervous and anxious, but as soon as i went in, they made me feel calm and guided me to the whole process, Amanda and Andrea (Ruth Andrea) took care of me all the time i was there, making sure i felt comfortable and relax. They explained the whole process and made sure i was calm and relaxed. The anesthesiologist came and explained everything also, they put warm blankets on me so i didnt feel cold in the OR, and when i woke up from the anesthesia, Andrea was there for me helping me with the pain i was having. Thank u ladies for the excellent service and attention.

Deceptive best business practices. They had my address incorrect and called me on February 25th @ 1:30, asking my address because they had a check for me. Instead they sent me a bill for $222.00. You could have asked for payment or Google my address to see if you got it right, since you got the bills back as undeliverable? If they are willing to LIE about a $222.00 bill, what will they do if they injure a patient or worse? I would have paid the bill, they didn't have to tell me they had a check for me to get the correct address. Dr Sanderson said the procedure I had, the price included the surgery center. At the check, they said I had no balance to collect before the surgery, they checked multiple times. I was going to have a $27k procedure in September, but this feels like a warning to find a different place to go.
