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.
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.
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.

Horrible experience. The surgery center didn't have enough patient beds. During pre-op and recovery I was forced to sit in an uncomfortable plastic chair. They refused to provide a second chair to elevate my feet. The first tech who attempted to install my IV line created so much pain that I thought I'd faint. My vein collapsed which required a second stick. The second tech Michelle installed the IV Line with minimal discomfort. Overall, it was a very horrible experience. My doctor uses this facility as their surgery equipment is state of the art with the best lasers required for surgery.

I had a back epidural/brachial block/steroid on 3/6/24. After a 10yr history of ongoing surgical problems including Cancer when I say this is one of the most excellent places I have been to. I moved back here 3 years ago n my experiences have not always been good. But I must say from the cleanliness, experience, care and concern. From the receptionist all the way up to the nurse, surgeon n anesthetic every concern n fear was address with compassion. Would definitely recommend and return again(hope don't have to ☺️) But thank u Tenaya Surgical Center for restoring my faith in the medical profession. 🥰😍

I unfortunately spend a lot more time in doctor's offices and procedure offices then I would really like to. The tenaya surgical center is by far the absolute best one I have ever been to. Every single staff member there is kind and caring and nice. They make sure that you are comfortable and taken care of from the minute you walk in that door. Even going in for injections I still have a great time every time I go just because the staff is so kind and so funny. I seriously cannot say enough good things about them. I would recommend them in a second to anyone who has to go in for any kind of procedures that they do. I have gone here many times over the past two and a half years and I'm generally a rather nervous patient but I never am going into the tenaya surgical center because I know how wonderful they are and how wonderful the care they provide is.

This particular building has a special place in my heart since I have been in it and around it well it was even being built decorated and designed. The original tenants included such amazing doctors as Dr James Mock ❤️ One of the finest cardiologists on the West Coast. Triple certified, absolutely brilliant doctor, yet a compassionate, kind ,down to earth, person who truly takes an interest in each and every one of his patients. In fact at one time this building only housed award-winning doctorssuch as the late Dr.Tyree Carr, an amazing, award winning Ophthalmologist, Optometrist & Opthalmoligic Surgeon , Dr Johnny Woodson,(Woodson Dermatology a breakthrough dermatologist specializing in the rare and before never treated skin disorders to groundbreaking beauty treatments ,& trustworthy physician when it came to educating patients on with the latest healthy & preventative dermatologically focused treatments and care for everything from healing diseases and disorders to overall Care for the absolute best in health and appearance our largest organ ,our skin. In my opinion the next incredible Teneya Surgery Center physician Dr. Bill Rifley is hands-down , the most talented, and without doubt the best plastic and reconstructive surgeon in the greater Las Vegas area. Not only is he another Physician I've had the privilege of being a patient, YouTube is the only thing when I recommend family and friends to trust. Last but not least a former employer and dear friend of mine Dr Carl Williams Jr. Hands down one of the top 10 hand surgeons in the United States. Another award-winning physician / surgeon to grace this amazing place as an in-house surgeon/ tenant. One of the lesser known jewels of this gorgeous building, is it's own namesake, the award winning surgery center. Only top doctors are allowed to operate here so success rates are unmatched, along with what I can only describe as a guaranteed "Excellent Experience". It's me surgery is Major regardless if it's a minor procedure or even an elective cosmetic procedure, Surgery @ The Teneya Surgical Center it's the place that I've had three surgeries myself as well as have recommended friends and family to have their procedures. It is a state-of-the-art facility beautiful, clean, & my most important go to feature well staffed with friendly highly educated, compassionate Health Care professionals. Though a lot of changes have taken place over the years as far as. Some of the physicians I mentioned have relocated to other areas of town, the one I mentioned first Dr James Mock, I'm still blessed with the privilege of calling him my cardiologist, still has his main office in this beautiful building . So whether it is surgery or needing a fantastic cardiologist, are the services of any of the other wonderful physicians here, The Teneya Surgical Center is a place you can trust. Sorry for the lengthy review but there was no shorter way to describe the excellence housed within this beautiful building. ❤️T. Rachael Pryor 🧸

Very pleased with the professionalism of the surgical team and staff here. Also, I am very grateful for Dr. Brimhall and his excellence in my cataract surgery (s). Everyone was very thorough and they were very caring. I realized that my next focus health-wise will be my ears...after many years of riding, I have developed “Harley ears” and tinnitus is not my friend! Made the surgical staff repeat so many questions that it became laughable. Thank goodness they all had such a great sense of humor!
