Procedures Performed

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

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 have had a few procedures here since January’25 (nothing to do with the work they performed, external situations led to the multiple visits) and the staff is extremely compassionate, competent, friendly, professional, welcoming, respectful, reassuring, ect. I have had nothing but positive and supportive experiences here. I highly recommend if you require a procedure they can provide.

This place is not good for the elderly who need daughters to help them. Staff said always policy to not have this happen and yet we have done it for over a year. Made a 87 year old get upset and cry because of the change.

Other than the Dr running an hour and a half late, it was an okay experience.

Dr. Uri Ahn is an amazing specialist, very professional and concrete in his domain. I personally would highly recommend Dr. Ahn to anyone that experience back issues or would like to complete spinal surgery. The physical therapy team is also great!

The front office staff are very rude and condescending. They think that someone’s anxiety and discomfort with having a procedure is a joke and funny. I would not recommend this place based on that alone. Grow up and be professional!
