Procedures Performed

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

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 have been seeing Dr. Scowcroft since 2019. His excellent bedside manners along with his staff's caring attitudes makes one feel completely at ease. They are top notch representatives of excellence, knowledge and care. I trust him so much that I travel 4 to 5 hours to see him. St. Luke's is extremely lucky to have him on staff. Thank You Dr. Scowcroft and thank you to your staff!

I received excellent care from the moment I arrived until I departed. The nursing staff is top flight and I cannot say enough good things about Dr Joel Ackerman. He is compassionate, caring and has an incrediblly good bedside manner. I would recommend him and St Luke's Pain Management Center to anyone suffering from chronic pain or injury related pain.

My husband had the "Mild" Procedure with very hopeful results but just the opposite happened. He stills endures the pain going down the right leg worse than before this procedure. They did not follow up with any help or advice or simply compassion.
