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.

Day before my procedure and I've waited 2 hours for a callback. Just needed to have a simple question answered about prep.

I never felt so scared, shamed, & uncomfortable in all my life. There is a way to follow health protocols without losing compassion, understanding, & making a patient feel badly for their health issues.

Place is a joke. I received terrible care. I was allergic to the medication I was prescribed, called the office twice with no call back. Also my primary doctor called them as well and told them I was allergic and still not a person called me to change the medication. So they basically have just left me suffer ! But funny I was supposed to have a different procedure and they have called me 15 times! Do not recommend. Very uncaring staff. Really 0 stars.

I was scheduled for a colonoscopy at 9:15. I showed up at 8:30. I and 20 other people were not checked in on average for a total of 2.5 hours. I was not checked in until 11:40 and then brought back 5 minutes later. I then, was not brought back for my procedure until around 12:45. If I, as the patient, shows up late to an appointment, I am charged a late fee and told to reschedule. For all of these patients that had to do a colon prep.....who wants to show up again and do that all over again. The doctor isn't charged a late fee.....the doctor isn't told to come back another day. They charge their fees and are done with it. I asked about why there was such a delay once I got back and the nurse told me that she has no idea and the people back prepping patients have no control over what goes on out front. If I had to make an appointment....what was the point of it if my appointment was that delayed? What should have been said is show up around this time and maybe we will check you in. This looks really bad on Dr. Fahmy and Dr Xiao. If you can not handle this many colonoscopies and endoscopies in a day, please consider your patient's time and practice better time management. If shoe were on the other foot, you would expect the same of us as the patient.

Listen, in case you all didn't know Heather is really great. Her smile, her kindness is exactly what the front desk needs. Once in the back, the people were nice as well. Thank you all for being patient, personable and professional.
