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.

My experience at the center was good! Everyone was professional and kind. Did not a have long wait after checking in. Once inside the nurses had a routine that was impressive and I felt that I was the only one being taken care of. The anesthesiologist and doctor explained their role clearly. Although they couldn’t continue my procedure, I felt comfortable and understood the next step.

All who assisted and cared for me were kind, reassuring and conscientious. The medical team helped alleviate my anxiety about the procedure. Dr. Ekangaki, the nurse anesthetist, the prep nurses and recovery nurses and other staff with whom I had contact, exceeded my expectations. The procedure went smoothly and efficiently. Thank you for a very positive experience!

I liked the procedure. It went on smoothly, although l was under the anesthesia. The staff are top notch. I will recommend people there. I was very nervous the day prior to the procedure. I came in nervous, but the wonderful team talked me through it. Thanks for all you do for us.

Everyone was so great at Raleigh Endoscopy. Very kind and understanding. They have things down to a science of orchestrated events. It was all so easy to get in and out again. The entire process was so much easier than I had expected it to be! There truly is no reason to put off these procedures. I would recommend Raleigh Endoscopy to anyone. You’ll be glad you went there.
