Procedures Performed

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

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.

I recently had a second procedure at the Gemini Surgery Center. As I stated after my first procedure, Dr. McDowell, and his staff, are amazing! They are professional, efficient, and very friendly. I don’t see how my experience there could be any better. I 100% recommend Dr. McDowell, and his staff, for your pain solutions!!

The staff was friendly and courteous from the moment I stepped foot in the door. I had almost no wait time: I did the intake paperwork and was brought right back to the room. I was kept comfortable throughout my procedure. Dr. Ali was knowledgeable and has an excellent bedside manner. I will definitely use this facility in the future, should the need arise!

There is no doctor who cares more for his patients than Dr McDowell. Yes, sometimes you have to wait, but that is what happens when a doctor listens. Sometimes medical issues can’t be diagnosed in 10 minutes - especially those as nebulous as pain. I trust Dr McDowell implicitly with my care - I wouldn’t even think about going somewhere else.
