Procedures Performed

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

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.
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 had a procedure yesterday and the staff was so awesome from the minute I walked in to when I was discharged. I met several nurses that were so great. The one I want to mention(I don't remember her name)was from London. She helped me so much on my discharge. I would definitely recommend the Carolina Center for Specialty.

Horrible experience, there Scheduling staff really suck,she was very lazy .wanted me to do her job for her,when I tried my best and jumped through all loops, my surgery was still canceled. I AM VERY UNHAPPY WITH THIS SURGERY CENTER. I hope no one else has to experience this situation. I hope that your staff will from this point go above and beyond, for patients. I hope to never come back here!!!!

I felt cared for from the first moment I walked through the doors. The staff was professional, kind, respectful and attentive. I greatly appreciated having my own private room while waiting to go into surgery and after phase one of my recovery. The facility was spacious and very clean. This is without a doubt a very deserving of five stars.

I couldn't say enough nice things about this facility. From the very first phone call for the scheduling and insurance info all the way down to the very last discharge nurse, every person I encountered and spoke with were the kindest people you could ask to be there for you. I never felt like I couldn't ask questions and never felt alone. I had numerous different nurses and Drs involved in my Microdisectomy and they ALL showed care and concern for MY well being! They also took care of my husband just as well as myself during his wait.❤️❤️❤️
