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.
Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery6
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.
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 am so glad to have found Journey Lite! It’s been about a year since surgery and I can say that every aspect of my experience has been above and beyond my expectations. I ultimately chose JL bc my insurance did not cover bariatric surgery. I live in Indianapolis, so the drive to Cincinnati was no big deal and totally worth it! I HIGHLY recommend Journey Lite, especially if you need to self pay!! I’m thrilled with my results and the entire process has been thorough, personalized, and completely professional! Thank you, Journey Lite!!

I've been a patient with Dr. Curry and his team since April. They have been 💯 the best. Don't be afraid to not go to them even if you live outside of Cincinnati as they do virtual appointment as well. If you have any questions they are only an email or text away and always get back to you in a timely matter. I've been post op three months and Dr. Curry still checks on me which is one reason im so glad I choose them. Dr. Curry and his team truly care about his patients.

Dr. Curry and the staff at Journey Lite is absolutely fantastic. I had VSG August 25th of this year. The staff was kind and compassionate answered all of my questions. Dr. Curry answered any questions I had and was amazing. In recovery they stayed ahead of my pain and helped me to be able to go home. It has been 3 months and I have had an appointment with a nutritionist and nurse every month. Dr. Curry has reached out to me every month to see how I am. I hear so may horror stories of patients not having provider support after and Journey Lite makes sure that doesn't happen. If I have any questions or concerns between appointment all I have to do is call or text and within a few minutes someone gets back to me. I would recommend Journey Lite to anyone looking for bariatric surgery

Dr. Curry and his staff are very professional, attentive, knowledgeable, and kind. They stay right there with you every step of the way and continue to help make sure that you are successful in your weight loss journey. They give you all of the tools that you need starting before your pre-diet to be successful and stay successful. I cannot stress enough that this is the BEST place for your weight loss needs. I previously had a lap band from another doctor and it failed. I DID NOT receive the same coaching and tools there as I do with Dr. Curry and his staff at JOURNEYLITE! Dr. Curry removed the band and did the sleeve in one surgery and changed my life forever for the better. I will never be able to express how grateful I am to him and every one of his staff. As of today at 6 months out, I am down 98 pounds! I had to travel about 4 hours to get this surgery and I’d do it a hundred more times and never regret it. When I was still on the fence and still a bit scared, I told a friend of mine (she had her surgery done in Chicago by a different doctor) that I was thinking about going to JOURNEYLITE. She asked me the doctors name and I said Dr. Curry. I could hear the excitement she had for me when she said, is his first name Trace? I said I don’t know and I came back and said yes, Dr. Trace Curry. She said, girl I will kick you in your butt if you don’t go, he’s one of the best and highest rated doctors that there are for weight loss surgery. Thank you Chrissy for that knowledge and thank you Dr. Curry and all of your staff for giving me my life back. If you’re out there reading this and you’re on the fence, don’t be. You can change your life too at JOURNEYLITE! I’ll be your “Chrissy” if you need me to!

I am soooo thankful that my insurance introduced me to this surgery center. They are so much more than just a surgery center. From the start of my journey I have had nothing but support and compassion from Journey Lite. When I officially started my weight loss journey I was 240 pounds (I am 5ft tall) I tried the shots those didn't work at all. Then I made the decision to go for the sleeve surgery. I know with any other place I wouldn't have gotten the care I did here. I am 3 months out and I am now 182 pounds. I get checked in with monthly by the actual DOCTOR (not something that happens ever) and I have check up appointments each month to check in with my progress and I get to speak with a dietician as well. I love the way they treat me and keep up with me and my progress. Journey Lite is the way to go! Choose them! Dr. Currey is the best. He was my surgen. Thank you!
