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.
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.

Well, the service was decent the day of surgery, but they are unable to do paperwork online and then they manually copied everything which leaves a lot of room for error, even though I brought my personal printed paperwork in from home. Oyyy, what a mess!! And then the worst part is I have overpaid and I still have not gotten a refund on the balance due to me.. also their Anesthesia charges you 3% surcharge for charging with a credit card. Who in this day uses cash to pay for surgery? Or a check? This is absolutely ridiculous and they need to refund my money asap! I wish I could ask for the interest owed to me! I’m going to tell my surgeon that I would not recommend going there for anything ever again. My surgery was three months ago by the way!! So if you have a choice, go somewhere else for your surgery!

This is (Ramona Elsayed) I had knee arthroscopic surgery yesterday and everyone there that I had contact with was very professional, informative, kind and understanding to my needs. I could not have asked for better treatment than I received at Jefferson Ambulatory. They just called to check on me and I appreciate their concern. A big Thank you to Dr. Binder too.

This place is phenomenal. I had never had surgery before, to which I made the staff aware. Also made them aware of my nervousness. This amazing team of individuals, from the front desk to anesthesiologists, made me feel like I was a part of their family. Treated me like a king. 100 percent impressed on the care I received from everyone here. Thank you Jefferson Ambulatory for a job well done! Highly recommend.

Every single staff member, from registration to discharge is fantastic. I’ve been there multiple times and each experience has been excellent. I always feel completely safe and secure and the nursing staff are caring and attentive. Anesthesia staff makes you feel safe, explains everything beforehand, Especially Matt. It’s nerve racking any time you have a procedure and they always do everything possible to ease your nerves. Thank you everyone!!
