Procedures Performed

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

Ophthalmology (Eye Surgery)6
Cataract SurgeryThe clouded natural lens of the eye is removed and replaced with a clear artificial one. It is one of the most common outpatient procedures performed in the country, usually takes under 30 minutes per eye, and is done under light sedation with numbing drops rather than general anesthesia.LASIK / Refractive SurgeryA laser reshapes the cornea to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism, reducing dependence on glasses or contacts. The procedure itself takes minutes per eye. Vision is often noticeably better within a day, though it can take several weeks to fully stabilize.Glaucoma SurgeryCreates a new drainage path for fluid inside the eye to lower internal pressure. Glaucoma damages the optic nerve silently, so the goal is preventing further vision loss rather than restoring vision already lost. Several minimally invasive options are now performed in outpatient settings.Retinal SurgeryRepairs the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye, most often for a detached or torn retina, or for bleeding related to diabetes. Timing matters — a detaching retina is treated urgently because delay increases the risk of permanent vision loss.Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)Removes excess skin and fat from the upper or lower eyelids. When drooping upper lids block part of the visual field, the procedure is functional rather than cosmetic and is often covered by insurance if visual field testing documents the obstruction.Corneal TransplantReplaces damaged or clouded corneal tissue with donor tissue. Modern techniques often replace only the affected layer rather than the full thickness, which shortens recovery. Vision improves gradually over months, and stitches may stay in place for a year or longer.
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.

Staff was kind and professional. They were very thorough in understanding my case. Dr. Southerland took his time with me instead of rushing me in and out of his office. I truly appreciated that!

Dr. Southerland remove my sister’s wisdom tooth. And now she has debilitating nerve damage that will never go away. Completely ruined her life. She was diagnosed with trigeminal neuralgia. UT southwestern diagnosed her after she had wisdom tooth removed. It was labeled an injury. By one of the top 25 doctor in the world for this condition. Her daily is pain getting worse everyday. So make sure u are aware you don’t have a hook in your root. Make sure u educate yourself. Now a dentist or an oral surgeon will not touch her while her teeth are rotting away.

10/10 I highly recommend Dr. Southerland and Wallace! I’ve now had work by both of them, and both are very good. I had teeth extracted under sedation. The staff is very friendly, they made sure I was comfortable and well taken care of! Dr. Southerland done my work and I couldn’t be any happier! Another thing that I love is that they are Christian! The office is very nice and clean and I got to listen to Christian music! If you have dental needs, I highly recommend both doctors!

Dr. Wallace is a great consultant and makes sure you are informed of what to expect during your surgery. Dr. Southerland did my surgery and it was quick, and easy for me all the way through. I was put to sleep, and woke up with no issues. Taylor was in the room during my surgery, and came in at first to make sure I felt okay before we started. She was nice as well. Carla at the front desk is very helpful for all questions. The office is clean, easy to locate, and professional. The medicine and after care packet they gave me was very helpful and they called to check on my after my surgery. I would highly recommend this practice to anyone who needs wisdom teeth removal.

The doctor and staff were all absolutely amazing. From the first consultation to surgery to post op care. They were all friendly, welcoming, repeatedly asked if I had any concerns. Truly made me feel comfortable. I had some post op complications due to dry socket and I called the office after hours and Dr Wallace contacted me within 30 minutes to address my concerns and then they met me at the office on Saturday to treat me. They could’ve just made me wait until Monday but they didn’t and I am so appreciative. I 💯 % recommend this practice to anyone needing any sort of oral procedure. They went above and beyond.
