Procedures Performed

Common outpatient procedures performed at this ambulatory surgery center, based on reported specialties.

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.
Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery6
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.

Agree with a previous reviewer - staff and surgeries have been amazing - between my kids and I, we've experienced 3.. BUT NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TO MAKE A PAYMENT/GET THROUGH TO BILLING. After the same billing experiences each surgery over multiple years, I would hope they'd invest in getting that department some more help!

I had a great experience here. I had a tonsillectomy done with Dr. Mueller. I was super nervous and scared and the staff was so nice to me and calmed me down and answered all my questions! Nurse Julie, my anesthesia nurse and everyone involved. Thank you!

The nursing staff and Dr. Cederberg were so wonderful for my husband’s septoplasty. Everyone was so kind, professional, and informative. I even felt like I was taken care of too while I waited for him to get out of surgery. Thank you for your excellent care!

My children have had 3 surgeries here, and the staff is amazing. Dr. Rosenberger is great, and we have never had a nurse or admission clerk who wasn't very friendly and completely professional.

I had the best nurses, anesthesiologist and physician complete my tonsillectomy! I was so nervous! They made it a great experience! This is day 1 and I feel better than I ever could've expected, especially as a 25 year old. Dr. Wolfe must've done an amazing job!! Highly recommend! I actually caught a matinée of the new Captain America a few hours after my surgery!
