Procedures Performed

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

Orthopaedic Surgery6
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.
Otolaryngology (ENT Surgery)6
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.
Interventional Pain Management6
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.
Podiatry (Foot & Ankle Surgery)6
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.

Just had to say Thanks to the Amazing team that took care for our baby girl yesterday. She went in for shoulder surgery and for any mama out there, no matter how small others think a procedure is, you always worry. I gotta say the team really helped calm my nerves. Starting at check in with Shannon at the front desk, then heading back with our entire team, Bri, Heather, Leah, Erin, Brooke and Casey. I really hope I didn’t forget anyone and don’t want to leave out the anesthesiologist. He really lightened the mood and had our girl laughing on her way back to surgery. Last but not least Big Shout-out to Dr. Pervaiz for repairing her chicken wing:)

Surgery is never fun, however, the staff from check in to the recovery was knowledgeable, calming and kind. Excellent bedside manner. I felt well taken care of the entire time. My surgery did end up being about 45min late but with an afternoon start time I expected some delay. Overall, a pleasant experience as far as surgery goes.

I’ve had hernia repair surgery there twice. The nurses and anesthesiologists are nice, informative and professional. My experience in the lobby was awful. I was subjected to the 700 Club spewing their propaganda disguised as news. A business should strive to eliminate the offensive. No news or political propaganda. Any extremism is unacceptable for a business to allow on their TV. Any extremism is offensive,and I was too nauseous to complain!

I had an awesome experience here! My surgery actually happened earlier than it was scheduled! All the staff from the front desk, to the nurses to the anesthesiologist to the surgeon were amazing. I was contacted a week prior to the surgery and updated multiple times throughout the week from the staff. I had an extremely uneventful surgery and cannot day enough great things about the facility and staff!

I went for cortisone injection. The front desk staff were courteous and polite. The nurses were extremely professional and compassionate. The nurse I had ( the one who looks like a teenager, but is 30) was kind and very professional. However, Dr Sood, the Doctor administering the injection, came in, snatched the sheet back, shoved something in my hip, while the nurse was trying to explain what I was going to feel. He the injected the medicine before I could catch my breath. He never explained anything I was going to experience and then left the room. I have had injections in different areas (not by him) and never experienced anything like this. I have been in severe passing and in bed for 2 days. This center is great however, this Dr is arrogant and lacks any type of bedside manner. I have been a nurse for over 20 years and have never seen a patient treated this badly! It’s very unfortunate that the staff have to work with this Dr , it reflects poorly on the center
