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.
Tonsillectomy / AdenoidectomyThe tonsils and sometimes the adenoids are removed for repeated infections or sleep-disordered breathing. Recovery is notably harder for adults than children, with significant throat pain for a week or more and a real emphasis on staying hydrated.Ear Tube PlacementTiny tubes are placed through the eardrum to drain fluid and ventilate the middle ear, most often for children with recurrent ear infections. The procedure takes about 10 minutes and the tubes usually fall out on their own within a year.Sinus Surgery (FESS)A camera and instruments passed through the nostrils open blocked sinus drainage pathways, with no external incisions. Considered for chronic sinusitis that has not improved with medication. Congestion often worsens briefly before it improves.SeptoplastyThe wall of cartilage and bone between the nostrils is straightened to improve airflow through a blocked side. It addresses breathing rather than external appearance, though it is sometimes combined with cosmetic reshaping.Turbinate ReductionSwollen tissue inside the nose is shrunk to improve airflow, frequently at the same time as septoplasty. Often the difference between a nose that is structurally straight and one that actually feels open.LaryngoscopyA scope examines the voice box and vocal cords, used for persistent hoarseness, difficulty swallowing, or throat pain that has not resolved. Small lesions can sometimes be biopsied or removed during the same procedure.
HysteroscopyA slim camera passed through the cervix examines the inside of the uterus, and can remove polyps or fibroids in the same visit. No abdominal incision is involved. Cramping for a day or two afterward is normal.LaparoscopyA camera and instruments are inserted through small abdominal incisions, allowing diagnosis and treatment without a large open incision. Used for endometriosis, ovarian cysts, and pelvic pain, with recovery measured in days rather than weeks.D&C (Dilation and Curettage)The cervix is dilated and the uterine lining removed, for heavy bleeding, after a miscarriage, or to obtain tissue for diagnosis. The procedure takes 10 to 15 minutes and most people return to normal activity within a day or two.Tubal LigationThe fallopian tubes are sealed, cut, or removed to provide permanent contraception. It should be considered irreversible — reversal is not reliably successful, so it is intended for people certain they do not want future pregnancy.Endometrial AblationThe uterine lining is destroyed to reduce or stop heavy menstrual bleeding, offering an alternative to hysterectomy. It is not a contraceptive, and it is only appropriate for those who have completed childbearing.Ovarian Cyst RemovalA persistent, enlarging, or painful ovarian cyst is removed, usually laparoscopically. Surgeons generally aim to remove the cyst while preserving the ovary itself, particularly for patients who may want future pregnancy.
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.
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.

Since day one, I’ve been so grateful for Dr Leavitt and Dr Maud. The compassionate, understanding and kind ways they attended to my/our family needs. Through out my pregnancy, me and my husband felt actually cared for there. Front desks receptionists always so nice and wonderful. A few nurses and ultrasound tech were also great too. To sum it up, we made a great choice by going to this place for our needs. Truly, thank you thank you.

I called several time to billing department to appeal a bill over the span of 5-6 months. The first three people to answer told me they would send appeal paperwork, but I never received it. The fourth person to answer explained to me that they don’t have appeal paperwork, she instead sent me to another admin for the doctors office, who was entirely confused on why I was sent there at all. After being passed around to several people I was told a manager would call me ASAP. When I still hadn’t heard back 3 weeks later, I called the number provided and they had no information or reason for why I would be calling. I then continued to call billing but was told I had to wait for a manager to call me. She was always out of office or had called me but I didn’t answer (there were no missed calls on the dates they provided and my number was correct). I was lied to by billing and just sent on goose chase for months to finally be told that there was nothing I could do or change. This is a predatory hospital who does not prioritize patient care.

Monsieur Daniel Loisoille is warm and personable. He takes time to get to know his patients and cares deeply about their well-being. I give this medical practice a 3 out of 5 for two reasons: 1. - Receptionist conduct: Some of the receptionists lack basic communication skills and, if I may add, cultural sensitivity. During each of my visits, I am asked who my doctor is. I mention Dr. Loisoille and typically pronounce his name in French, as that is its original form and I speak the language. The staff often feel compelled to correct me pronunciation and anglicize it, which feels dismissive and unnecessary. 2. - Organizational issues: The reception team also seems disorganized and surprised by routine requests like scheduling a blood test. This past week, I had a blood test, a glucose test, and a cholesterol test. I received the blood test results promptly via my InterMed account, but had to return to the office to ask about the others. The same receptionist who scheduled the tests called InterMed headquarters for clarification. When she mentioned my name, she referred to me as “Kareem D.” despite my having explained my full name beforehand. A small gesture of respect—like trying to pronounce it—would have gone a long way. Final thought: I’d also like to gently point out that not everyone is familiar with medical procedures or terminology. As a patient, I didn’t know that glucose and cholesterol levels could be measured simply by drawing blood and placing it into a tube. The technician seemed surprised by my questions, but I believe medical staff should be prepared to explain these things without judgment. A little patience and clarity go a long way in making patients feel respected and informed.

their behavioral health services are a joke. had an appointment and the first question they asked me was if AI can listen in on my physical and take notes. no professionalism, no regard for privacy, and after ten years with them i have basically had zero treatment for all of my preexisting conditions. i have been at a waitlist with another provider for 2 years.

I have been dealing with a chronic illness for the last 4 years. My doctor at the time did not have the expertise or experience to treat me-I was put on steroids for months then pressured heavily to go on an antidepressant as they did not think there was anything physically wrong with me. I declined and asked for a new doctor who will actually treat my symptoms. The practice allowed me to change my doctor but told me this would be the last time (I would have to leave the practice if I wanted a new one). After 4 years of countless tests, time, and money spent I was hopeful my new doctor would approach from an empathetic and understanding place and provide a treatment plan. Instead I was gaslighted, saying I had one diagnosis but not actually putting it in my chart. I had a visit 2 months ago and brought a family member with me as an advocate. I and my family member were told that what was really wrong with me is that I’m mentally ill and his initial diagnosis from 3 years ago was incorrect. I have been a patient for over 31 years and will never return to Intermed. I got a new Dr who immediately referred me to a rheumatologist and created a treatment plan and for the first time in 4 years I have found relief from the pain I was experiencing. These 2 doctors allowed me to suffer and did not care about my well being. Please, avoid this practice especially if you are a young woman. They will take your money, tell you you are crazy to try to hide their incompetence, without providing any sort of care.
