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.

Took my daughter there and waited 3 hrs to be called back . I've been to a lot of Dr's. Offices and never waited that long it's ridiculous if you go there I would pack a lunch.

Worst doctors office I’ve ever been to been too every time I’m sitting here for an hour. Don’t ever come here. They don’t know what they’re doing I promise you.

Asked (and gave my insurance member ID) when scheduling my appointment to double check if they are in network with my insurance as well as confirming with my insurance company that they are to cover all my bases got to my appointment gave them my insurance card and paid my copay BEFORE the appointment only for them to tell me an hour AFTER my appointment that they are out of network and that I would be paying out of pocket for my consultation and cancelled my follow-up appointment. So be warned

I just had my first colonoscopy with Dr. LUFADEJU, and if I could have him for my doctor for everything I would , such a nice intelligent doctor , very nice bedside manners . RN of 28 years and he is the best I've met in a decade. I'm pretty critical of doctors. I enjoyed the staff. Competent and fun , I will return if a need arises.
