Procedures Performed

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

Orthopaedic Surgery6
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.
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.
Podiatry (Foot & Ankle Surgery)6
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've had great experiences, my elderly mother who has had two knees and a hip done with Dr. Tripurenini (hope that is right, great guy) and my father also had both knees with GREAT success. I go here every 3 months for knee injections and it is the quickest and smoothest process it could be. Looks like reviews here are all 5 star or 1 star, and that's probably the nature of working with people in pain. My family has trusted at least Dr. Tripurenini with our life and well being and have been very satisfied and grateful.

I had ACL reconstruction surgery yesterday, and the care I received was outstanding. My pre-op nurse Heidi was especially great! She made me feel so calm before the procedure and she was able to get my IV on the first try, which is atypical for me, as I have very small veins. Dr. Chapman did a great job of explaining everything to me for post-op, too. He’s been a great orthopedic doctor for this whole injury’s course. The anesthesia team were fantastic: my biggest fear was that anesthesia typically makes me extremely nauseous and they took that to heart and gave me lots of therapeutics to prevent it and I didn’t have any nausea at all. Even the receptionist & billing specialist were super friendly and helpful.

I see I’m not the only one with this problem-the billing practices are disorganized, dishonest, and and just straight up wrong. I set up a payment plan, then reviewed all of my documents and saw I had paid everything in full. I called and called and emailed, but every month the money came out! I got my bank to block the payments finally, then today I was told they’re sending me to collections because I’m “one month behind” on my payment plan, despite not owing any money. The woman at billing started interrupting me the second I mentioned their numbers were wrong and kept repeating that my card declined and that I hadn’t paid my bill in October. No matter what I said she would repeat herself. I will regret my behavior when I’ve calmed down, but I will admit I yelled at her. I haven’t yelled at anyone since I was assaulted while bartending 10 years ago. I’m honestly shocked and disoriented over losing my temper like that as it is not typically in my nature. I am responsible for my behavior, but it says something about their billing that they are the first to break me since a man put his hands on me (I’m a woman)

My friend had her shoulder replacement here and it was an amazing experience. Everything went so smooth and all of the staff were very professional. They helped a stressful experience to be relaxing. The post op care and teaching made the transition to home a breeze. We highly recommend.
