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.
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.
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.
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 would like to thank this surgery center for providing excellent care during my visit. I specifically would like to thank my care team: Molly (Pre-op Nurse), Allison (Circulator Nurse), Amanda (CRNA), Yvonne (Post-op Nurse), Carlos & Dr. Prosky. The environment was professional, friendly, clean & provided a blanket sense of caring! I recently retired as the Materials Manager/O.R. Nurse from another Inova Surgery Center and was very familiar with the history of McLean. I was quite impressed & very satisfied with the care I received!!!! Thank you ALL for doing what you do!!!!!

I’m honestly not sure why this center does not have a 4.5 or better rating. My hats off to every team member that helped my son today. It was a day to witness a team that wins the Super Bowl vs a team that does not. On a chaotic morning where their network services were down and they had to print all their patients information and change their entire routines up, every worked even harder to make the morning run like a well oiled machine! Everyone we came in contact with was pleasant, helpful, attentive and friendly. It felt like you had a super supportive team on your side who cared about how your day went despite theirs being throw off quite a bit. My son and I were both extremely pleased with the service and care level from the administrative staff, to the nurses, to the pain management levels, to the doctor. Lots of hands in motion today to make my son’s first surgery such a success and one that we both said we would do over as long as it would be with this same center. Staff were incredibly caring and respectful, as well as kind and supportive. Again, hats off to every team member who cared, shared, supported and gave a helping hand today! Much appreciation!

I had foot surgery here. Every single staff member (including the pre-op interview nurse, the receptionist, the registration person, all of the nurses, and the anesthesiologists) was incredibly kind, attentive, and thoughtful. My procedure went off without a hitch, on time—every step of the process was efficient without being rushed. I felt like everyone really cared about my comfort and my peace of mind. Lots of little patient-centered touches (like a heated gown, warm antiseptic towels, and warm blankets) really made a difference. Every member of my care team even signed a card and left it in my take-home pocket! 10/10 experience, no notes. Would not hesitate to go back if I needed another ambulatory procedure.

Very hypersensitive screening I provided documentation that I did not have any cardiac issues. However, the anesthesiologist persisted on me going through an entire Work # up with a cardiologist, including a nuclear stress test. Echocardiogram, lots of running back-and-forth in the meanwhile, my bicep is cut in half waiting for surgery and these people did not listen to anything that I said to them. The anesthesiologist is absolutely stubborn Kathy was nice I guess but she was questioning every single little thing about my health history, and when I provided proof that I had no heart history, she continued to insist that I did Please do not go to this place. They are not equipped, and they are not capable of helping. You should something go wrong during surgery. They even said that to me on the phone.

I just had a surgical procedure last week and I can say every interaction I had with the facility was pleasant and professional. From scheduling, to registration and the medical staff in pre-and post op, everyone was great. The charge nurse during my surgery was wonderful, very calming and I could tell she was a seasoned veteran, which made me feel even more comfortable. Anna was also very pleasant and helpful during pre-op.
