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.
Otolaryngology (ENT Surgery)6
Tonsillectomy / AdenoidectomyThe tonsils and sometimes the adenoids are removed for repeated infections or sleep-disordered breathing. Recovery is notably harder for adults than children, with significant throat pain for a week or more and a real emphasis on staying hydrated.Ear Tube PlacementTiny tubes are placed through the eardrum to drain fluid and ventilate the middle ear, most often for children with recurrent ear infections. The procedure takes about 10 minutes and the tubes usually fall out on their own within a year.Sinus Surgery (FESS)A camera and instruments passed through the nostrils open blocked sinus drainage pathways, with no external incisions. Considered for chronic sinusitis that has not improved with medication. Congestion often worsens briefly before it improves.SeptoplastyThe wall of cartilage and bone between the nostrils is straightened to improve airflow through a blocked side. It addresses breathing rather than external appearance, though it is sometimes combined with cosmetic reshaping.Turbinate ReductionSwollen tissue inside the nose is shrunk to improve airflow, frequently at the same time as septoplasty. Often the difference between a nose that is structurally straight and one that actually feels open.LaryngoscopyA scope examines the voice box and vocal cords, used for persistent hoarseness, difficulty swallowing, or throat pain that has not resolved. Small lesions can sometimes be biopsied or removed during the same procedure.
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.

I had an excellent experience at Advanced Surgical Center in Sunset Hills. The staff was professional, friendly, and took the time to answer all of my questions before the procedure. My back surgery went better than expected, and they were incredibly efficient in getting me scheduled quickly to help relieve my pain. I’m very grateful for the care and attention I received — highly recommend this team!

The staff was super nice! Penny was incredible and so was my anesthesiologist but I can’t remember his name! Also if anyone needs an amazing ENT I highly recommend Dr Christopher Bell! He’s the one that did my surgery at advanced surgery center.

Simply an awesome team of truly professional caring individuals! Couldn't ask for better care from scheduling, admitting and nursing staff. Paperwork explained, questions answered, privacy from beginning of procedure to discharge (this was not my first rodeo). There are a lot of these facilities popping up, I appreciate my surgeon's choice, and would not hesitate to recommend this one for out patient procedures.

I had surgery here performed by Dr. Zobens on 9/7/18. I've had quite a few surgeries and outside of oral surgery they'd always been done in a hospital. I'm really glad that I had my surgery here instead of a hospital. First, the check in process was quick. There was one minor error on my paperwork and they fixed it quickly. The lady at the front desk and the office manager were friendly and professional. The waiting area was clean and comfortable. I was taken back quickly and the nurse I had made me feel very comfortable. The level of attention I received was much better than what you see in a hospital setting. The patient area was also very clean and comfortable. I already liked my doctor, and I highly recommend Dr. Zobens if you need a podiatrist. The nurse anesthetist was fantastic. Again, very personalized attention and care from the staff. I had a nerve block and the other anesthesiologist administered that. They gave me meds to calm my nerves, and applied a local anesthesia to make the nerve block more comfortable. The OR was clean and comfortable, better than other OR's I've been in. I totally understand why my doctor chose to perform my surgery here. Overall I'd give this facility a 10/10. Hopefully I won't need anymore surgeries, but if I ever do and it's something that could be performed here, I would absolutely choose this facility over any hospital in the area.
