Procedures Performed

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

Breast Augmentation / ReductionBreast size is increased by placing implants, or decreased by removing breast tissue and skin and repositioning the remaining tissue. Reduction is often performed to relieve back, neck, and shoulder pain caused by breast weight.RhinoplastySurgery that reshapes the nose by altering the bone and cartilage beneath the skin. It is performed to change appearance, to correct breathing problems caused by internal structure, or both. Swelling takes months to fully resolve.FaceliftLiposuctionFat is suctioned out from beneath the skin through small tubes called cannulas, reshaping a specific area such as the abdomen, flanks, or thighs. It targets localized deposits and is a contouring procedure rather than a method of weight loss.Wound ReconstructionRebuilds skin and underlying tissue where a wound is too large or too damaged to close directly. Surgeons move nearby tissue, or transfer skin and muscle from elsewhere on the body, to cover the defect. Often follows trauma, infection, or cancer removal.Skin GraftingHealthy skin is taken from one area of the body and transplanted to cover a wound or burn elsewhere. Both the graft site and the donor site need care, and the donor site is often the more uncomfortable of the two.
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.

Very disappointed. They never called the night before as a reminder and the day of the procedure they called to say it was missed. Hello the appt was 2 not 11:30. They cancelled the last appt and this time they changed the time with no notice. We rush there to be seen. Ok thank you. Don’t expect to get paperwork to fill out to save time the day of and when I come back next week it has to be filled again there. What happens if the person needs help filling the forms out and can’t do it on their own. They don’t get seen?? Come on people really? Not a good experience there.

Had acl and meniscus tear repair here and everyone was awesome. Everyone was friendly and helpful and went above and beyond what was expected. My glasses broke and they even fixed those while I was in surgery. The Billing department is my only complaint. They want payment upfront to cover the reminder of my deductible but take forever to submit the claim. they called my insurance 2 weeks before surgery about how much I owed on my deductible and by the time you go for surgery you have paid more into that deductible. Still waiting for a claim to be submitted so I can get refunded the money I overpaid paid to them and now need to go towards my deductible to pay the other doctors bills that were submitted in a timely manner to the insurance company.

All the staff at Westminster Surgery Center are wonderful! From the front office staff, to the nurses (Eric, Kristy (I think) and Kelsey, sorry if I forgot some!) were so friendly and accommodating. Everything was explained thoroughly to me and the staff made sure I was comfortable throughout my whole at the center. The facility was clean and comfortable with an endless supply of warm blankets! :) I would 100% recommend the Westminster surgery center.

Best experience ever! I had surgery morning of Dec 10, 2020 with the best team at the surgery Center. As soon as I walked in the receptionist was pleasant. to meeting my nurse Barbara and anaesthesiologist Dr. Patel. The nurse that assisted me after surgery was great also. Dr. Patel gave me words of encouragement and I loved our chat about yoga. I am so thankful to have had a great team and experienced individuals during my surgery, You guys ROCK!!
