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.

I went for a colonoscopy today and Dr Bouchard is the best! He makes you feel comfortable and explains everything throughly. As far as the staff, nurses and anesthesiologist, they were all very nice and also made you feel comfortable. Thanks to all!

I had my second procedure within a year at Hamilton Endoscopy & Surgery. Relatively small procedures, but I tend to get VERY nervous before any kind of medical procedure. The staff were fantastic from front to back & truly calmed my nerves. Everyone from the folks at the front desk to the nurses dr’s & anesthesiologist were just wonderful. And to finish everything off, all paperwork was handled without a bit of action by me. Thank you for taking what is normally a nerve wracking experience for me & making it as close to a pleasure as could be expected!

Front desk staff is very abrupt and rude. I will be contacting the office manager to discuss. My husband had a procedure today and said the "back room staff" was courteous and professional. He also loves the doctor so for that reason I'll give it 3 stars. The front desk needs to seriously do better. The no waiting in the waiting room rule is absolutely ludicrous. And there is no reason to be rude to people waiting for loved ones. The reception area should be looked at as I am clearly not the only person who experienced this treatment.

This health care facility, so called, provided quite possibly the worst care I have ever received, and being in health care for 32 years as an RN, I have a unique perspective. We arrived at the time we were asked to and proceeded to wait an hour before my husband was called back, he then waited another 45 minutes before the prep began. The front desk staff were very abrupt and curt with their instructions and it might have been nice if we had been informed about the current waiting room policy prior to our arrival so that we could make appropriate arrangements. My husband reported to me that he had severe nausea and cramping after his procedure and the staff seemed to be able to offer very little in the way of care, the best they could do was offer a trip to urgent care. I would think that a center specializing in endoscopy and colonoscopy would be more familiar with caring for their patients with common post procedure complaints. I was called and told to be there at 1:30 and when i walked in the center, I was abruptly told to wait in my car, again it might have been nice if I had been given this information prior to my arrival. I waited over an hour for my husband to be discharged, and when he was, no one had even bothered to remove the electrodes. I sincerely felt that this place is run more like an assembly line than a health care facility, the main goal of which is to get as many patients in and out as possible. Let us wait around, so you don't have to. People, presumably staff, mulling about in open toe shoes, which I have NEVER seen in health care, using the waiting room bathrooms, did not unstill much confidence in the professionalism of the care. Anesthesiology rapidly pushing IV meds causing pain and burning, and a rude and uncaring staff all contribute to the fact that we will never use this facility again, and hope others will take this review seriously. When my husband and I both had this procedure performed in a different setting the experience was completely different, we felt cared for, not rushed, and it was a positive experience. One star because it won't let me post zero
