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.

The staff here are all so wonderful! From the front to the back, everyone was very kind and competent. This morning I had my plate and screws removed after 16 years in my leg. The nurses took in my concerns about being nauseous after sedation very seriously and offered me all of the different medicines available. Dr. Howard explained the procedure to me and listened to all of my concerns with a calm, comforting energy.

I had knee replacement surgery 2 weeks ago at MI Specialty Surgery Center. From the time I walked in till the time I left it was a very professional experience. Everyone was so nice and helpful. All the staff made me feel comfortable and were very supportive and friendly. Shout out to Theresa who has called me many times and was very helpful in helping me through this process. Thank you to the whole staff!! I am doing well and on the road to healing. If you need surgery I definitely recommend MSSC 💜

I had a knee scope in this facility today and had nothing but a positive experience! From the front desk staff to the nurses they were great! Maddie was very friendly and made me feel comfortable even though I was nervous with getting the IV and she made it painless and quick. Steven was also great, he was nice and went through everything thoroughly and made sure I didn’t have any questions. They made it a great and comfortable experience!
