Procedures Performed

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

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.

Dr. Spearman and his staff were professional and kind. He carefully explained my concerns and developed a plan of action to address them. I never felt hurried or rushed through. I have had the recommended testing and received the results from Dr. Spearman's staff, and I know what we will be doing to followup on a yearly basis. Thank you for addressing my concerns and following up with a plan of action now and for the future. I would recommend this group.

Hard to say I enjoy going here, but I have no issues with the visit. The hardest part is doing the prep and diet for 2 days. Once I arrive I fill out the questionnaire then to the back I go. The staff is the best, very friendly and professional. I always have a good laugh with the anesthesiologist and Dr Jones. Before I get put under. After the procedure I am back in recovery and ready to go eat in minutes.

The posting is about Dr. Jones They did my colonoscopy. The nice thing about him and his team that they were informing me constantly about what was going to take place how long it was going to be an a recovery time and to make sure that I had a ride to leave on. It was easy quick and now my flow is tremendous. I would highly recommend Dr. Jones to anyone whose looking for a great guy to have a conversation with. He’s the man. Dr. J I can’t thank you enough Bob Moore.

Had a long wait to get called in to an exam room but then had a great visit with Dr Arnold. He’s so friendly and compassionate - and charming. I just needed a refill on a med and he went over some recent labs and talked about my health in general and assured me I’m doing great and to come back when needed. Wish he were one of my “regular” doctors!
