Procedures Performed

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

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.
Obstetrics & Gynecology6
HysteroscopyA slim camera passed through the cervix examines the inside of the uterus, and can remove polyps or fibroids in the same visit. No abdominal incision is involved. Cramping for a day or two afterward is normal.LaparoscopyA camera and instruments are inserted through small abdominal incisions, allowing diagnosis and treatment without a large open incision. Used for endometriosis, ovarian cysts, and pelvic pain, with recovery measured in days rather than weeks.D&C (Dilation and Curettage)The cervix is dilated and the uterine lining removed, for heavy bleeding, after a miscarriage, or to obtain tissue for diagnosis. The procedure takes 10 to 15 minutes and most people return to normal activity within a day or two.Tubal LigationThe fallopian tubes are sealed, cut, or removed to provide permanent contraception. It should be considered irreversible — reversal is not reliably successful, so it is intended for people certain they do not want future pregnancy.Endometrial AblationThe uterine lining is destroyed to reduce or stop heavy menstrual bleeding, offering an alternative to hysterectomy. It is not a contraceptive, and it is only appropriate for those who have completed childbearing.Ovarian Cyst RemovalA persistent, enlarging, or painful ovarian cyst is removed, usually laparoscopically. Surgeons generally aim to remove the cyst while preserving the ovary itself, particularly for patients who may want future pregnancy.
Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery6
Breast Augmentation / ReductionBreast size is increased by placing implants, or decreased by removing breast tissue and skin and repositioning the remaining tissue. Reduction is often performed to relieve back, neck, and shoulder pain caused by breast weight.RhinoplastySurgery that reshapes the nose by altering the bone and cartilage beneath the skin. It is performed to change appearance, to correct breathing problems caused by internal structure, or both. Swelling takes months to fully resolve.FaceliftLiposuctionFat is suctioned out from beneath the skin through small tubes called cannulas, reshaping a specific area such as the abdomen, flanks, or thighs. It targets localized deposits and is a contouring procedure rather than a method of weight loss.Wound ReconstructionRebuilds skin and underlying tissue where a wound is too large or too damaged to close directly. Surgeons move nearby tissue, or transfer skin and muscle from elsewhere on the body, to cover the defect. Often follows trauma, infection, or cancer removal.Skin GraftingHealthy skin is taken from one area of the body and transplanted to cover a wound or burn elsewhere. Both the graft site and the donor site need care, and the donor site is often the more uncomfortable of the two.

I just had my Breast aug surgery here yesterday. Amazing amazing expierence. I have never had any surgery before or went under any anesthesia before either. I was terrified of the anesthesia. Nurse Anne and Renee were AMAZING. they eased my anxiety and they truly care about their patients. They both spent quality time with me before to make sure they answered all of my questions before my procedure. They stayed with me right before my surgery and when I woke up they were right next to me providing me with exceptional care. They truly care about their patients. Also my anesthesiologist Dr. Frazier was amazing. He really helped my get through my anxiety and made me feel as comfortable as possible. North Fullerton surgery center is hands down the best surgery center and I will recommend this place any day to everyone. They truly truly care about their patients. Thank you guys so much!

My experience was beyond my expectations. Dr. White, anesthesiologist, nurses, radiologists and staff were all wonderful! They were kind and their expertise showed. I would highly recommend North Fullerton Surgery Center(Montclair Breast Center) especially if you have breast cancer you’re in good hands.

The staff was A+++! From the moment I walked in until the moment they put me into my car, I felt super comfortable and at ease. The place was super clean and everyone was remarkable. All of the RN’s and everyone in the OR was amazing, can’t say enough good things. And Dr. Rosen is a phenomenal surgeon, would recommend him and his team over and over again. Thank you all again for a great experience and making a super anxious person very calm and happy.

I was so pleased with the service and cleanliness! I got my rhinoplasty with Dr. Joseph and my RN Kristen, Renee, and the other staff members were so intentive they made me feel so calm. I could not be more happier with my decision. Getting a cosmetic procedure is always a little anxious of course you were excited but just nervous overall and the staff here especially Kristen and Renee made me feel so much better and much more relaxed! I would give 10 stars if that were an option especially for the staff!
