Procedures Performed

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

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.

What a wonderful place to go for a colonoscopy. The staff puts you at ease from the moment you check in till you are discharged. Believe me from someone who suffers from panic/anxiety attacks I was so scared but they are so understanding and made me feel comfortable and not afraid. Thanks to all of the staff, you are the best!!

I really like this place but I was stuck with needles twice today! The anesthesiologist kept slapping my hand hard looking for a vein! Not cool when you’re nervous going in for a procedure!

I really appreciate the fantastic care from all the staff during a recent endoscopy. Everything was surprisingly smooth with minimal waits from check-in to discharge. They were super friendly and helped with my anxiety around having anesthesia for the first time. The procedure itself was seamless and I woke up feeling like I had a nice nap, with almost no discomfort. They explained everything to me during each step and made sure I was comfortable before proceeding. Hopefully won't need another endoscopy anytime soon but I would definitely trust them in the future if I ever need to.
