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.
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.
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.

Dr.Choi is an excellent doctor and is very conscientious of her patient's needs. She has played an instrumental role in eliminating lower back pain for me in the past years. More recently, she performed a steroid injection procedure in my neck. I truly appreciate her knowledge, professionalism and commitment to helping her patients! Dr. Choi is huge asset to Summit Orthopedics! I am very fortunate to have her and her team assist in my medical needs.

Dr Choi is an exceptional neurosurgeon. Her injections were a trial to test determine if ablations would be an effective treatment for my nerve pain. Results indicated that procedure would not be effective. I’m glad Dr Choi chose a trial test before she actually performed the ablation.

Doing a spinal steroid injection by Dr Choi and her staff, I found the the doctor and especially her assistants in the operating room were annoyed and put off by my questions. I wanted to know the name of the steroid being injected, the exact area in my spine where the injection was being injected, etc. They either didn’t respond or responded in a curt fashion. Very poor bedside manners and empathy for the patient. They were focused on efficiency and getting as many procedures completed in the shortest time. Also the blood pressure cuff used throughout the procedure was causing intense pain on my arm and I have a high tolerance for pain. I told them that the cuff was painful. Again the assistants treated this as an annoyance to them rather than a critical issue that required their immediate attention. They kept saying bear with it. I literally had to blurt out to them to take the damn cuff off before one of them readjusted the cuff tension which eliminated the pain. Why not do this the first time I communicated that it was very painful? smh. I have never experienced this lack of attention and empathy by medical professionals in my life. Shame on Summit for allowing these conditions and behavior to exist. Summit can and must do better. Overall I cannot recommend this procedure at Summit based on my experience. And I had a spinal injection done by TCO in the past. No issues with TCO.

Dr. Nicholas Wills and his team did an amazing job with my surgery. From start to finish, they were professional, caring, and made me feel completely at ease. The results exceeded my expectations, and I couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend!

It was a good experience, for having minimal surgery, it was good. Wonderful staff, very caring and courteous. The only thing I would of preferred, is having a TV program to watch to distract my mind from the 2 hr. wait. There was a TV but it wasn't on and no one gave me the option and I feel it would help a patient's anxiety if they had something to distract them from impending procedure, no matter what it was.
