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.

It is so easy to get a colonoscopy or endoscopy here without all the hassle of going through a hospital. I’ve had both a colonoscopy to check for pre-cancerous polyps and an endoscopy for problems with swallowing food. The place is super efficient, clean, and friendly. It also has the best ratings from U.S. News for this type of clinic. Highly recommend!

I have been a patient at Mid-Columbia Endoscopy for 12 years, undergoing 3 colonoscopies and an endoscopy. I'd first like to echo the other comments about the kindness and professionalism of the staff. But also add that there have been zero complications with anything Dr. Boon has done, and following his advice after my endoscopy cleared up the problem I was having.

The staff here are courteous, respectful and competent. Dr Boon is very thorough and knowledgeable. I could have not asked for better care and consult for my colonoscopy. Two thumbs up!

I was very pleased with the professionalism of the staff during my first visit. My colonoscopy and endoscopy examination was performed at a second appointment in a comfortable, friendly setting in their facility. They were able to accomplish both exams in less than 1-1/2 hour. They provided me with photo documentation of their findings and took care of all "fixes" during the exam, so no follow-up should be needed. I really appreciated not having to have an exam to find any problems and then to have a separate exam to correct the problems. That was not needed as the exam and fixing the problems all occurred in one short visit.
