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.

Just had my teenager in for a procedure. Everything went perfect. I was extremely nervous but everyone there was professional, attentive and knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend!

Had a procedure done here in August. This facility was pristine. Coming from a health care professional I can tell you everyone and everything was incredible. Doctors and nurses were a perfectly oiled machine! So friendly too. It was absolutely the most comfortable surgical procedure I’ve never had (that being said it was also the biggest and longest procedure so that’s saying something!) If you have second thoughts about this about this being an outpatient center vs inpatient hospital facility, don’t!!! They really know what they are doing and are absolutely incredible start to finish.

Highly recommend!! I cannot say enough wonderful things about this facility and their staff. From the moment you walk in you are welcomed by a friendly and caring reception area. The facility is clean and comfortable. Upon moving into the surgical area, I was greeted by Allysa who immediately made me feel comfortable and relaxed. Allysa walked me through every step and ensured I remained comfortable. Next, a huge kudos to Allison Parker and Dr. Kelly on the anesthesia team. They both made me feel extremely comfortable and explained everything in detail. Finally, during recovery, Kayla, was the best RN side by side with Allysa in ensuring I was comfortable and up and ready to ambulate without any issues. You will not be disappointed with this fantastic team of people caring for you.

This clinic was incredible from the greeting at reception to the nursing staff, anesthesiologist and physician. Everyone explained what to expect, they were personable and competent. BASC- you made my experience go as smoothly as possible and I will absolutely be returning in the future for diagnostic testing.

I had a total knee replacement at BASC yesterday, and I cannot say enough about the nurses and doctors. They were incredibly professional and efficient, I don’t know how they do it honestly. Nurse Anne especially was so knowledgeable and compassionate, she even made it a point to seek me out to say goodbye and best wishes as her shift ended. They are just the best !!
