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.

I had a total hip replacement performed by Dr. Presley at TJC on September 5th 2025. I just wanted to say that this Doc and the whole place and process was 1st class if you ask me. The secretarial staff, my nurse navigator ( Jennifer) were the 1st people I talked with and the communication was great throughout the whole ordeal. The day of surgery the TJC was fantastic! Kendall (pre-op RN) Lindsay (pre-op /recovery) Leah (OR nurse) Shelby (CRNA/ anesthesia) Dr. Dhakhua (anesthesiologist) Christy (call RN) thanks to all and anyone I may have omitted. Your enthusiasm, energy and compassion made a stressful situation for me completely easy and I will relay it to anyone who asks me about it. Thanks again Dr Presley I got a feeling this hip replacement will be life changing in a positive way. Matt Meinert 😀😀😀

I had a left hip replacement performed at the total Joint Center recently. Dr Robert Paul performed the ANTERIOR hip replacement and I am so happy I did. Last year, due to insurance constraints, Dr Paul performed the same surgery on my right hip at North Kansas City Hospital. Although I am pleased with the outcome, and won't completely compare/contrast the two, I will say that the Total Joint Center is by far the most efficient, buttoned up, and detailed center I have ever experienced. From the initial "class" to go over the entire procedure, to the paperwork, insurance, meds and pharmacy, the pre op staff and follow up calls by nurse post op, I cannot say enough. The Total Joint Center is by far the most efficient and comfortable way to have this procedure done (I've been told by friends that their experience with knees were the same). Every staff member made me feel not only comfortable but confident that I'd made the right choice. Thank you all!
