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.

My husband had a procedure scheduled there. We were given an arrival time by the provider's office that was evidently wrong. Received a phone call from the Surgery Center as we were pulling into the parking garage - where were we? The african american receptionist was rude and gave us an attitude when she stated that we were late for the procedure. I replied, "would you like to see our paperwork? This is the time we were given." She backed off when she realized that I wasn't going to put up with her behavior. The surgery and the rest of the staff were just fine. This person needs to be fired or counseled. Sounds like reception is an issue according to other reviews.

I’ve had numerous procedures done here and each time timely with care. Colonoscopy, endoscopy and most recently a gallbladder removal. Always scheduled quickly. Everyone is extremely personable and it seems like the type of clinic where the staff are allowed to be themselves in personality, which can be hard to find. The nursing staff is phenomenal and each provider I’ve seen has taken AT LEAST 30 minutes and thoroughly explained things to me and let me talk as well. Can’t recommend Bhatti GI enough!

Trying to cancel my appointment. I had an appointment scheduled for Monday 11/17@ 1:00pm. I was hospitalized for 11 days and moved to Transitional care on 11/18. Mid Friday afternoon on 11/14 I tried to cancel Mondays appointment via the app. due to me being still in the hospital at Southdale Fairview for cardiac issues. The app wouldn't let me cancel or reschedule, it said I couldn't do this and needed to call in. Which I ended up trying to do after my PT so I didn't try calling until later afternoon about 4:46 pm. I was on hold listening to the music and the second person in que according to the computer generated voice. Listened to music longer, it's now 5:04. After closing and the call dropped. On Monday mid morning 11/17 I tried calling again and went to a hold listening to music again for 18 minutes, I hung up because it was taking to long and my OT worker showed up at my hospital room for my daily OT care. I tried cancelling with no luck. I will try calling again today 11/20 to cancel the follow-up appointment scheduled for 11/24 due to me being in Transitional care for 2-3 weeks. In the app my missed appointment says No Show. Frustrating and difficult to cancel. Is this their way of making it difficult so they can bill insurance for a no show? 🤔 Wish me luck!

The receptionist was rude. My daughter and I arrived a little early for her appointment. The receptionist told her that she couldn't check in until 15 minutes before her scheduled time. Between the 2 receptionist, they were singing and talking very load. Making weird noises. One receptionist was checking a patient, while the other one was singing a song. Another patient said her name was spelt wrong on her bracelet. They claimed thats how it was put in her chart and blamed it on someone else. A nurse explained how her name was supposed to be spelt, and then they realized they made the mistake and reprinted the patient bracelet. What a sceen they had, over who did what. Blaming someone for thier mistake. Please. I had such a headache from listening to this singing and load laughing, noises and conversations between each other, I had to leave until my daughter was done.
