Procedures Performed

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

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.
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.
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.
ColonoscopyA flexible camera examines the full length of the colon to screen for cancer and remove polyps before they become cancerous. Done under sedation, it typically takes 30 to 60 minutes. The bowel prep the day before is the part most patients find hardest.Upper Endoscopy (EGD)A thin camera passed through the mouth examines the esophagus, stomach, and the first part of the small intestine. Used to investigate persistent heartburn, difficulty swallowing, unexplained bleeding, or abdominal pain. Usually takes 15 to 30 minutes under sedation.Flexible SigmoidoscopyExamines the lower portion of the colon only, rather than its full length. Preparation is lighter than a full colonoscopy and sedation is sometimes unnecessary, but it cannot detect problems higher in the colon.Capsule EndoscopyYou swallow a vitamin-sized camera that photographs the small intestine as it passes through — a region that standard scopes cannot easily reach. There is no sedation and no recovery. The capsule passes naturally, and images are reviewed after the fact.ERCPCombines endoscopy and X-ray imaging to diagnose and treat blockages in the bile and pancreatic ducts, most often gallstones stuck in a duct. Unlike a routine endoscopy, it carries a meaningful risk of pancreatitis afterward, so it is used when treatment is likely rather than for screening alone.Hemorrhoid TreatmentShrinks or removes swollen veins in the rectum and anus using rubber band ligation, injection, or surgical removal depending on severity. Banding is quick and typically requires no anesthesia; surgical removal is more effective for advanced cases but recovery is noticeably more uncomfortable.
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.

I would give 10 stars if I could I went there to have a colonoscopy of course I was scared but from the start when they took me back, Lexi and Tracy calm me down and had me laughing. And then I met Doctor JOO what a special person knowledgeable explained everything to me and exceeded my expectations. I also like to thank Connie and Melissa I would say if you need to have this procedure I would choose Jefferson surgery center in Cherry Hill New Jersey. Thank you guys for making my experience great

I had a procedure done here last week and it could not have gone better. I arrived at 6:15AM and left by 8:30 which is pretty amazing for a procedure where I had to be put under. All of the doctors, nurses and admins were incredibly nice and friendly. The building is brand new and beautiful. One note: it was kind of hard to find via the maps instructions. Especially because the google maps picture doesn't look anything like it. You're going to the giant glass hospital. It's easy when you know what you're looking for :)

The nurses, doctors etc were all excellent however registration was a nightmare they demanded money on day of my surgery after the week before I was told they would bill my insurance co first and in 90 days I could set up a payment plan. The girl at registration Had me so upset since I only brought my phone, license and insurance card since I was not told I had to bring payment. She harrassed me in front of others saying I had to make a payment and even when I told her I had none on me she was not very nice and told me they would have to cancel my surgery and she picked up her cell phone asking me did she need to call her supervisor to see what could be done and did I want her to have to wake her up. My husband had went down to get his phone out of the car and she said what about your husband won’t he have money the proceeds to tell me that I needed to pay $528 that day of it would be cancelled and I said well he won’t have that kind of money on him he will have to drive home and she got nasty and called the nurse to tell her I would be late because I was holding up the surgery for not having payment! This was the most awful experience I have ever had before going into surgery! My husband had his debit card on him and she without asking not only put in for the payment for that morning but set up for two more payments to be taken out in April and May for $528 each which was not right I am out of work on disability and this has put a burden on me and my bills. I explained to her several times that the lady who called me the week before told me none of this and I was expecting to make payments I could afford!! Not just given what they wanted to take! I would think seriously about going elsewhere this is not what someone should have to go through right before going into a big surgery!

The facility and people were decent. Billing is a nightmare. They required a cash payment in the amount of my full annual deductible up front to cover anything I would potentially owe, fine, makes sense. However, every person I dealt with (Dr performing the procedure, anesthesiologist, Dr reviewing the test results etc) all belongs to a separate legal entity with a separate billing department. So I started to receive bills and was wondering “where does the cash I paid up front factor into this?” It doesn’t, that went to the surgery center. I spoke to them (the surgery center), and my insurance, and I only owe them $100, they owe me a big refund, more than enough to cover all of the bills I’m receiving from the various other entities I dealt with that day (for my single procedure at “Jefferson”). However, the surgery center outsources their billing to a lady in Kansas or Kentucky and you have to leave multiple messages and leave a message with the head of the surgery center and eventually she’ll call you back and say “refunds aren’t a priority, it’ll probably be several months until I get a check from them.” But all of the other bills they’re sending me ARE a priority (regular phone calls and notices etc). I’ll probably just pay them AGAIN to avoid any collections/credit damage and then keep after them for god knows how long (it’s already been months) for my refund but it’s very aggravating and I really don’t want to pay them twice and then fight to get back what they owe me based on principal.
