Procedures Performed

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

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 took my mother to the center for a procedure and I was very impressed. From the registration process to the discharge process there wasn’t one member of the staff that didn’t bend over backwards to make sure that I was comfortable and well informed throughout my mothers procedure and let’s not forget the nursing staff and doctors who were amazing to say the least. If I lived in Palm Beach and I needed a procedure that this center performed, would not think twice about scheduling my appointment there.

Beginning with Spencer at the front desk, the staff is fantastic. The nurses are all kind, supportive and explained everything thoroughly. Dr Ellis is kind, patient, knowledgeable and answers all questions. Bravo, a great staff.

I was very impressed with the professionalism of the staff. They were all very kind and excellent in their jobs. My only concern was that I waited longer than anticipated. It seemed like it was just due to volume of patients. Everyone seems to love the doctors and so they have really built a busy practice.
