Procedures Performed

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

Interventional Pain Management6
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.
Gastroenterology (GI Surgery)6
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 understand that this is how these people make their living, but I don't think I'll ever put myself through that again, on any level. The prep was a NIGHTMARE. Felt pretty groggy and tired the next day. I don't think my concerns were respected. Not everyone is going to embrace this particular procedure with the same vigor the staff and doctors just don't even care. Dehumanizing man. I would hate to have something happen and my last moments being in this place. Like if something goes wrong, you sue, they got insurance. The place is drab and depressing. You don't really feel like you walk in and want to trust the place with your life when it's got such a depressing, medical office aura of misery.

Excellent care, professional staff, the nurses, front desk staff, the recovery nurses are the best. They explained everything, review all that they were doing, ask questions. Efficient and the recovery is quick, Dr. Kwon, thank you.

The services at the center are stellar however the process of having bills submitted to more than one insurance seems to be a serious challenge. This is an issue that has been outstanding since July 2024. My primary insurance paid however there's an issue with the way that the office is resubmitting the claim for the balance to my secondary insurance company resulting in non-payment. Ive gone back and forth with the office numerous times over the last few months with no success and I'm completely exhausted and frustrated by the numerous calls, texts and emails that I continue to receive all because the office refuses to follow new instructions for submitting a claim.
