Procedures Performed

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

Interventional Pain Management6
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.

I saw him for less than 10 minutes told me to get over told me to get a MRI because he thinks I have a pinched nerve in my lower back. I was born with cerebral palsy as people with my condition get older we develop secondary effects and with mine, it’s my nerves flaring up and muscle spasms, and the tightness from my lower back all the way through to my feet and I told the woman at the desk I would not be coming back

Dr. Ellner has kept me moving for a lot of years. He and his staff are caring and responsive. I could not imagine where I would be if I was not a patient. After 26 ortho surgeries, I can tell you that he is amazing.

I went in in extreme pain and after 1 treatment was pain free for about 4 months. Just had a second treatment after pain returned and now I’m pain free again. It takes weeks to get an appointment for the procedure that’s the only reason for the 4 stars otherwise they are 5!

My wife has chronic pain due to many ailments. We have seen Dr. Ellner and his staff for several years. We have been pleased with his care and the concern he shows for his patients. I have seen doctors who care, but I am telling you he really stands head and shoulders above the rest. If you have chronic pain I suggest you come see Dr. Ellner.

Dr. Ellner and his staff were friendly. I was extremely upset to be asked for a urine sample so they could conduct a drug screen. I pushed back and was told it was necessary. Keep in mind I was in extreme pain and already told I needed a spinal fusion. I complied with the request, passed of course and was taken back to prepare for the epidurals. Much to my surprise I have now received a bill from the company that provides the drug testing services. I feel I should have been told there would be a separate bill for a service I tried to deny. I will add they greatly reduced it from $1370 to 102. I'm 54 years old and in screaming pain referred by a Neurosurgeon in the network Of course I'm not a drug addict trying to jump from dr. to dr. I finally ended up at Emory having the same procedure and no drug test was required.
