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.

I loved my experience with CSS and O+FS. Dr. Denes is a great doctor, the nurses were great (shout-out to Vlad in specific for easing my nerves prior to my operation), and Dr. Pak erased all worries I had about anesthesia. I have nothing but good things to say about this place… with the exception for the paperwork process. I gave my paperwork to them nearly a month ahead of my operation, which I needed to submit to insurance and for my work leave. It took over 3 weeks to receive my paperwork back, but I feel I was only remembered because I called repeatedly. And when I looked it over, it had incorrect information, which caused much stress. To their credit, it was fixed the following day, although no explanation was given. I understand everyone is busy and overworked, especially in the medical industry. All I was asking for was consistent and open communication. That didn’t totally happen, and that’s okay. I’m currently in recovery for my surgery which went great! It was really a great experience overall, and I’d like to thank Dr. Denes and the staff at CSS and O+FS for their hard work and care. I would absolutely recommend them for any work that needs to be done.

Dr. Beall is a fabulous hand surgeon. I have dupeytrends, and he removed my baby finger on my left hand, practically painless, and healed very quickly. Just got out from having my finger on my other hand straightened, pray that goes well also. So far no pain! I highly recommend him! Anesthesiologist did a great job of putting me under, no problem coming out of it. His support staff is delightful ,so kind and caring. I highly recommend The Center for Specialty Surgery!!

The folks here are exceptional. They are kind and explain the steps they're going to do and answer any questions you have. I had a cortisol shot for my right hip, and they were so good I didn't even feel the initial lidocaine injection! The procedure was over before I knew it. Fantastic work and I definitely recommend them.

Efficient, professional and very friendly service in every aspect. Front desk, on the phone, all levels of medical staff were wonderful. Dr. Denes is outstanding, and he and my anesthesiologist Dr. Mahoney both checked on me multiple times prior to and after my surgery. The nursing staff is top notch, Marian took great care of me in surgery prep and kept me calm and relaxed. Great team and highly recommend Orthopedic and Fracture Clinic!

If surgery is needed, this is one of the best places I have seen/been! I’ve already been impressed with Orthopedic and Fracture Specialists, and their surgery center is an incredible extension of the professionalism & care experienced at this medical group’s office. The surgery center neighbors the Orthopedic Clinic Barnes Road location. It is decorated and designed to be extremely inviting for those waiting for their person, one of the most comfortable waiting rooms I have been in in a medical setting. The nursing and administrative staff are truly delightful!!!—warm and calming which is necessary and key in an environment where people may be nervous. EVERYONE from start to finish was amazing throughout the entire stay, it was impressive beyond expectations. Though a surgical center, there really wasn’t that clinical feel there. I would elect to have surgery here if needed, as the doctors, nurses and administrative staff are thorough, professional, and with great “bedside manner”! You can tell much thought was put into the design of their Center…well done!
