Procedures Performed

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

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.
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.
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.
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 am going to start by saying that this facility is beautiful and very well maintained. Cleanliness is top notch and the care is even 10 times better. Every single person I came across at this center made me feel extremely welcome and honestly helped ease my anxiety throughout the entire process! My five year old has never had to have any surgical procedures done so being a first time single mom you can understand my concerns when it comes to be my child being put under general anesthesia. They explain every single thing about the whole process to you and answer any questions you may have! My son’s elf, Mr Huggers, got to come with him today in his magical jar. The nurses and Dr let him bring the elf back with him during surgery as well. They all helped make this day so special and magical by helping me keep Christmas spirit alive with our elf! I cannot say enough good things about the nurses here as well as the drs. Thank you every single one of you for today and for making this mamma have a peace of mind during the entire process! I recommend this center 100000/10 if you have a child needing any dental work done. You won’t be disappointed!!!!

Although I cannot speak for everyone, I can share my experience at Western PA Surgery Center in Aliquippa. I arrived 25 minutes before my scheduled time, and the lady at the front desk informed me that I was early. Despite this, the nurse and doctor provided excellent care until the end. However, when it was time to see my daughter, who is 3 years old and not comfortable around strangers, the nurse asked me to come back and see her as I am still speaking to the dr so I felt very rushed . I could hear my daughter screaming, which is customary after waking up from general anesthesia. The nurse instructed me to take my time but rushed me out the door. It's worth noting that they did not clean her up; blood was all over her face, ps: her face was a lot worse until I was able to pull over to wipe her off a bit and they did not wait until she was fully alert or gave her time to compose herself. Overall, the experience was good until the end, and I would suggest they improve their patient care at the end of the procedure if you can’t handle toddlers or find it very overwhelming strictly work with older kids!

I seriously can't say good enough about this center. My daughter had pretty excessive dental work done today due to a fall at cheerleading. Her doctor was from Pediatric Asleep dentistry and he was just as awesome. But the staff at the surgery center was AMAZING. I seriously can't say good enough down to the anesthesiologist. While my 8 year old daughter was in surgery the director of the building Brad sat and talked to me, You never get that type of attention anymore. Such a great guy with a beautiful purpose for his center that he runs. Nurse Karlie also really stuck out to us as she and the rest of the staff went beyond to take excellent care of my Lyla and calm her nerves. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

This review has absolutely nothing to do with the drs. It’s about the place itself. This is a very well maintained building with plenty of parking and handicap accessible. Clean restrooms. And clean halls. There’s a small vending area for you to use while waiting on a loved one. There’s a very nice elevator as well as a stairwell. There are only two floors. There’s a nice sitting area when you first walk in.

My Mother just had her first cataract surgery at Western PA Surgery Center with Dr. Phillips. It was a very good experience for her. She was treated with the utmost kindness and respect. This team of medical personnel is like a well oiled machine. They work together with so much professionalism. She was very relaxed and came through the surgery with no problems. She is looking forward to her second cataract surgery thanks to all these wonderful professionals. Thanks for everything.
