Procedures Performed

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

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.
Tonsillectomy / AdenoidectomyThe tonsils and sometimes the adenoids are removed for repeated infections or sleep-disordered breathing. Recovery is notably harder for adults than children, with significant throat pain for a week or more and a real emphasis on staying hydrated.Ear Tube PlacementTiny tubes are placed through the eardrum to drain fluid and ventilate the middle ear, most often for children with recurrent ear infections. The procedure takes about 10 minutes and the tubes usually fall out on their own within a year.Sinus Surgery (FESS)A camera and instruments passed through the nostrils open blocked sinus drainage pathways, with no external incisions. Considered for chronic sinusitis that has not improved with medication. Congestion often worsens briefly before it improves.SeptoplastyThe wall of cartilage and bone between the nostrils is straightened to improve airflow through a blocked side. It addresses breathing rather than external appearance, though it is sometimes combined with cosmetic reshaping.Turbinate ReductionSwollen tissue inside the nose is shrunk to improve airflow, frequently at the same time as septoplasty. Often the difference between a nose that is structurally straight and one that actually feels open.LaryngoscopyA scope examines the voice box and vocal cords, used for persistent hoarseness, difficulty swallowing, or throat pain that has not resolved. Small lesions can sometimes be biopsied or removed during the same procedure.
HysteroscopyA slim camera passed through the cervix examines the inside of the uterus, and can remove polyps or fibroids in the same visit. No abdominal incision is involved. Cramping for a day or two afterward is normal.LaparoscopyA camera and instruments are inserted through small abdominal incisions, allowing diagnosis and treatment without a large open incision. Used for endometriosis, ovarian cysts, and pelvic pain, with recovery measured in days rather than weeks.D&C (Dilation and Curettage)The cervix is dilated and the uterine lining removed, for heavy bleeding, after a miscarriage, or to obtain tissue for diagnosis. The procedure takes 10 to 15 minutes and most people return to normal activity within a day or two.Tubal LigationThe fallopian tubes are sealed, cut, or removed to provide permanent contraception. It should be considered irreversible — reversal is not reliably successful, so it is intended for people certain they do not want future pregnancy.Endometrial AblationThe uterine lining is destroyed to reduce or stop heavy menstrual bleeding, offering an alternative to hysterectomy. It is not a contraceptive, and it is only appropriate for those who have completed childbearing.Ovarian Cyst RemovalA persistent, enlarging, or painful ovarian cyst is removed, usually laparoscopically. Surgeons generally aim to remove the cyst while preserving the ovary itself, particularly for patients who may want future pregnancy.
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.
Bunion Correction (Bunionectomy)The bony prominence at the base of the big toe is removed and the bone realigned, often with screws or plates. Recovery involves weeks in a protective shoe or boot, and swelling can persist for several months.Hammertoe CorrectionA toe permanently bent at the middle joint is straightened, sometimes with a temporary pin holding the correction. Considered when the toe rubs painfully in shoes or has developed calluses and sores.Plantar Fascia ReleaseThe tight band of tissue along the bottom of the foot is partially released to relieve stubborn heel pain. Reserved for cases that have not improved after months of stretching, orthotics, and other conservative treatment.Ankle ArthroscopyA small camera and instruments treat problems inside the ankle joint — impingement, loose fragments, or damaged cartilage — through incisions a few millimeters wide, avoiding a larger open exposure.Ingrown Toenail RemovalThe edge of a nail growing into the surrounding skin is removed under local anesthesia. When the problem keeps recurring, the nail-forming tissue at that edge is also treated so it does not grow back.Foot Fracture RepairBroken bones in the foot are realigned and stabilized with hardware so they heal in position. Because the foot bears your full weight with every step, alignment matters more here than the small bone size suggests.

I had an amazing experience from check in to being wheeled out to my car. My surgery required anesthesia, so I really don’t remember much when I was in the pre op room. I was also given something to help with my nerves while in pre op to make me more comfortable. It definitely worked. The nurse who got me ready was very good at what her job entailed and all with a fantastic bedside manner. She was also teaching a new employee at the same time. I never felt rushed or pushed. The medicine to help with my nerves made me lose my memory, so after I was given that, I don’t even remember being wheeled out of my room, or anything in the or. I do remember waking up to, in my opinion the best nurse. His name is Mark! He has the best bedside manner, he’s very intelligent, thoughtful, thorough, calm, all while making sure I was comfortable and as pain free as possible. When my spouse arrived, Mark explained everything in detail and made sure we both knew what to lookout for in terms of if a problem arises. He sent me home with everything I needed for my recovery down to when my next medications were due for me to take. All in all it’s the best experience I’ve ever had having surgery from the check in lady to leaving. Everyone was so nice and thoughtful and even though I don’t remember the folks in the operating room, I’d like to thank them, my surgeon, my nurse in pre op, to Mark in recovery. I definitely recommend going to Day Surgery at RiverBend in Springfield, Oregon.

I’m not sure who was responsible for this mess, but I was not given complete instructions about pre-op information for a scheduled biopsy that I showed up for and it was cancelled. I believe some of that is my ENT’s office fault, but the nurse at Day Surgery Center told me that, BY LAW, I had to have someone accompany me on the ride home with ride source and someone would have to be with me for 24 hours post procedure. There is no law stating such a thing, so Amber or Heather, whoever “helped” me, please don’t spread misinformation. If the practice has a policy that’s one thing, which also was NOT IN THE PAPERWORK I WAS GIVEN, but please know what your policies are. The paperwork mentions nothing about escorts being mandatory for a ride, nor does it say that if you can’t have someone with you 24/7 your surgery will have to be scheduled in the hospital for an overnight stay. None of that was my fault, and since not everyone is on the same page I wonder if it would have been possible to get my biopsy done today. Would be nice to rule out cancer instead of making me wait longer.

Absolutely amazing experience!!!! The front desk staff all the way to nurses and back office staff were very good to me. I felt so comfortable and well taken care of. I had certain requests and to see the communication between the whole team to make sure everyone was on the same page was very helpful. Great team! I was definitely impressed. I highly recommend this place if you are deciding on a surgery center. You will not be disappointed in your choice.

My nurse Matthew was great. He was constantly joking and made me feel comfortable. He was also very professional, good at distraction, and I didn’t feel the IV needle when he inserted it (one of my biggest phobias!). Dr. Yang was great with providing the information that I asked for and surgery was smooth. Cameron was awesome once I was out, the anesthesiologist and his medical student were also cool (sorry guys I was too drugged up to remember your names). This was a really good experience and I think this whole team was wonderful. Matthew, watch The Outsider (Stephen King)
