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.

Colonoscopies sure aren’t fun, but these folks make it SO MUCH better! They’re professional, friendly, compassionate, and quicker than I’ve ever experienced. If you HAVE to get a colonoscopy, get it done at Bel-Clair!

Great experience. The office was responsive to my calls, and the procedure was very easy. Dr. Maganty was my doctor, and the other medical staff (Tara, Tori, Paul) couldn't have been kinder.

Today I had my colonoscopy. The staff at Bel-Clair surgical treatment center couldn't have been more professional than they were. I am a talker and they listened to me rattle on to get rid of my anxiety. Even the doctor listened to me. Very friendly and customer oriented. Once they got me all prepped and told I was going to sleep, I was out like a light. I felt nothing and the doctor was there when I woke up to tell me everything was fine and that the Cologuard test I had done was a false positive. Days before my test I called at least twice to ask questions and they always listened to me and answered all my questions without sounding frustrated. My second colonoscopy and both have been negative. I no longer have to do anymore. They really put me at ease and I can't thank them enough for their service.
