Procedures Performed

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

Knee ArthroscopyA camera and small instruments are inserted through incisions the size of a buttonhole to repair cartilage, trim a torn meniscus, or remove loose fragments. Because the joint is not opened fully, recovery is far faster than traditional open knee surgery.Shoulder ArthroscopyUses a small camera and instruments through tiny incisions to repair the shoulder joint — commonly for impingement, labral tears, or damaged cartilage. Most patients go home the same day and begin physical therapy within the first week.ACL ReconstructionRebuilds the torn anterior cruciate ligament using a graft, since a fully torn ACL does not heal on its own. The surgery itself is outpatient, but returning to cutting and pivoting sports typically takes nine to twelve months of structured rehabilitation.Rotator Cuff RepairReattaches torn tendons in the shoulder to the bone. Pain relief often comes well before strength does — a sling is typical for several weeks and full recovery commonly takes four to six months, with physical therapy doing much of the work.Carpal Tunnel ReleaseCuts the ligament pressing on the median nerve at the wrist to relieve numbness, tingling, and night pain in the hand. The procedure takes about 15 minutes under local anesthesia. Night symptoms often improve immediately; grip strength returns over several weeks.Joint ReplacementDamaged joint surfaces are replaced with implants, most commonly at the knee or hip. Once exclusively a hospital procedure, selected healthy patients now have this done at surgery centers and go home the same day with a structured recovery plan.
Bunion Correction (Bunionectomy)The bony prominence at the base of the big toe is removed and the bone realigned, often with screws or plates. Recovery involves weeks in a protective shoe or boot, and swelling can persist for several months.Hammertoe CorrectionA toe permanently bent at the middle joint is straightened, sometimes with a temporary pin holding the correction. Considered when the toe rubs painfully in shoes or has developed calluses and sores.Plantar Fascia ReleaseThe tight band of tissue along the bottom of the foot is partially released to relieve stubborn heel pain. Reserved for cases that have not improved after months of stretching, orthotics, and other conservative treatment.Ankle ArthroscopyA small camera and instruments treat problems inside the ankle joint — impingement, loose fragments, or damaged cartilage — through incisions a few millimeters wide, avoiding a larger open exposure.Ingrown Toenail RemovalThe edge of a nail growing into the surrounding skin is removed under local anesthesia. When the problem keeps recurring, the nail-forming tissue at that edge is also treated so it does not grow back.Foot Fracture RepairBroken bones in the foot are realigned and stabilized with hardware so they heal in position. Because the foot bears your full weight with every step, alignment matters more here than the small bone size suggests.

Great place with a super nice and professional team. Dr. Deweese did a complete hip replacement surgery on me and from start to finish the team made me feel comfortable and the whole procedure was pain free. I highly recommend Dr Deweese and his team at the orthopedic institute.

I want to share with everyone about a phone call I got the other day for my husband. A lady named Kim Lillie had called and talked to me on my husband surgery on December 5th. She was so nice to me and told me what my husband has to do and the medicine that we had to pickup. Thank you Kim for all your help.

Nice clean place and the staff before my surgery were super nice. After surgery was something else completely! We were told my wife would be allowed back with me after the procedure l, but she wasn't. I had rotator cuff repair and from the time I woke up and was shoved out the door was about 20 minutes. The only thing they helped me do was put my socks after that they just handed me my clothes and I had to dress myself while still feeling the effects of being put under. Only thi g they told us was to wait 2 or 3 days for a shower. Didn't explain what to expect during my recovery or even tell me the correct way to utilize my sling. I though hey this may be just a one off or a bad day but I know 2 other people that were done the same way. So if your looking for a good experience when you wake up and help getting dressed when your still a little out of it don't go here bc you'll be left doing it all your self.
