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.

I had a EGD procedure done by Dr. Levitt in July, I was already anxious because I hate needles especially IVs! We had a few hiccups with getting the IV in, but my nurses Courtney and Briana worked with me, they were so patient and understanding, just wanted to send a big thank you to you two for getting me thru it! I would definitely recommend them!

I want to thank the AWESOME STAFF and Dr. Haywood for a great experience. Everyone was professional from check-in to check-out. I showed up on the wrong day for my procedure and they worked to fit me in. My nurse was great she teased me with a good Jamaica meal that she knew I could not have. The staff made sure that I was comfortable the whole time. Dr. Haywood came and explained my results to me after my procedure. I hate medical stuff, but the staff at Panola Endoscopy gave me a great experience and i am forever grateful for each and everyone one of the staff. Be blessed y'all!!!

As a whole the place was clean, smelled good, staff very professional & the doctor was good at what he is designated to do. Dr Haywood was his name!! This place is a hidden gem
