Procedures Performed

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

Cataract SurgeryThe clouded natural lens of the eye is removed and replaced with a clear artificial one. It is one of the most common outpatient procedures performed in the country, usually takes under 30 minutes per eye, and is done under light sedation with numbing drops rather than general anesthesia.LASIK / Refractive SurgeryA laser reshapes the cornea to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism, reducing dependence on glasses or contacts. The procedure itself takes minutes per eye. Vision is often noticeably better within a day, though it can take several weeks to fully stabilize.Glaucoma SurgeryCreates a new drainage path for fluid inside the eye to lower internal pressure. Glaucoma damages the optic nerve silently, so the goal is preventing further vision loss rather than restoring vision already lost. Several minimally invasive options are now performed in outpatient settings.Retinal SurgeryRepairs the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye, most often for a detached or torn retina, or for bleeding related to diabetes. Timing matters — a detaching retina is treated urgently because delay increases the risk of permanent vision loss.Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)Removes excess skin and fat from the upper or lower eyelids. When drooping upper lids block part of the visual field, the procedure is functional rather than cosmetic and is often covered by insurance if visual field testing documents the obstruction.Corneal TransplantReplaces damaged or clouded corneal tissue with donor tissue. Modern techniques often replace only the affected layer rather than the full thickness, which shortens recovery. Vision improves gradually over months, and stitches may stay in place for a year or longer.
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.

I’ve been coming to box canyon for years and I’ve never had a problem. Recently they’ve changed ownership and completely changed the prices. No warning just call the day before and rudely demand over $900 more than usual. This felt like I was being held up. Absolutely disgusted with the horrible treatment. The last surgery I was charged 2X. I paid cash and they charged my insurance. Charged my insurance over $3400. This is wrong and I wouldn’t recommend using this company.

While waiting in my car for.husband to have his eye surgery I killed my battery. Called good Sam for a charge but their service was an hour out. When hubby was ready. I told the nurse to keep him for awhile whilst I waited for my service call.next thing i know there were two nurses giving me a charge! Great Staff and he’s very pleased with his new vision!

In general, the staff was friendly, and Dr. Wellish is a very good Doctor. On my first visit for Cataract #1 on Jan 11, I arrived 40 min early, as I was asked too, when the nurse called me that morning. I still ended up laying in the prep room over 2 hrs before being taken into surgery room. And on Feb 1, I ended up laying on this flat bed 3 hrs and 40 min, before being taken to surgery room for eye #2. I had a 12pm appt, but I wasn't completely finished and out of there until 4:26 pm !! All the patients that arrived and had appts AFTER me was done with surgery and gone, but I ended up being the last patient of the day, with no explanation as to why. My hip Bursitis made this an even worse nightmare. Not until after 2 hrs of laying completely flat on this surgery bed, did anyone come into my cubicle to check on me, to see if I was comfortable, and this was also the first time i was told that the head of the bed could be raised for my comfort, but still no explanation of why i was waiting so long, or why everyone the entire afternoon was waited on ahead of me. After being there for several hours, i at least expected someone to have the courtesy to let me know what was going on. Instead, I was left there completely forgotten about !!

The surgery center was very professional and fast. They did a good job of prepping me for surgery and helping me alleviate my fears. The surgery went well and seems to have been a success. I had a glaucoma surgery here and I am doing much better.
