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.
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.

Their incredible staff displayed exceptional bedside manner, making me feel comfortable throughout my procedure, and I experienced no pain two days post knee-surgery, eliminating the need for pain medication.

I’ve had two procedures done here by Dr Harms, I am very pleased with the staff here. Everyone is so helpful and explained everything very well. The last procedure I just had done was a knee replacement on June 7th, my experience was very satisfactory. The nurse that took care of me Lauren was exceptionally good. I would recommend this place to anyone who need’s orthopedic surgery done.

My dad had a medial meniscus repair with Dr. Harms. From walking in the front door and being greeted by staff, , to getting pushed out in a wheelchair to the car after surgery, the overall experience was beyond wonderful…. A great team of staff, from administration to nursing to anesthesia and of course an awesome surgeon. The CRNA ‘s that work there are some of the best in our community, and you can tell people love their job. Very grateful for a wonderful and successful experience and outcome for my dad. We will be back!

Super experience, welcoming front desk people who kept me informed about timing and why there was a bit of a delay. Nursing was kind and took such wonderful care of me before and after surgery. CRNA made me feel safe and comfortable, and of course Dr. Samuel Harms is a star, talked with me before and after surgery, again I felt reassured and well cared for. Experience was better than I had hoped.

I broke my thumb which required surgery to fix. Doctor Hall was great and was able to do the surgery only two days after my initial visit. My anesthetist Glen was very professional and friendly. He preformed a nerve block, which worked great, I had no pain all day. Overall my entire experience there was awesome! I highly recommend them!
