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.
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.

I got my 3rd Radio Frequency Ablation aka nerve cauterization done by Dr. Taylor and he is amazing at what he does, he has incredible bedside manners. He talks you through the procedure and makes sure to check on your throughout. Takes your health and allergies into consideration. All of his staff that I have had the pleasure of dealing with the last 2 years have been very sweet and caring. Highly recommend for your spinal pain management care

Dr McKay is awesome! He takes the time to explain everything in detail. I just had my second rotator cuff surgery. The first one is doing great! I also want to give a shout out to Dr Hammer, who did a spinal fusion on my wife. Dr Hammer truly cares about her patients and maintains open communication with them. Olympia Orthopaedic Associates seems to have the best physicians around and I highly recommend them.

Dr Taylor is Wonderful. He is an exceptional surgeon but even more important he actually LISTENS to your concerns and wishes. Scott Adams, his PA is knowledgeable, patient, kind, and also listens to my concerns and worries. He takes the time I need, without rushing, while Managing to do a thorough but quick appointment.

The surgery Staff are all skilled, compassionate, and dedicated. Everyone I have spoken to or dealt with has been wonderful. Thank You Dr Taylor, Scott Adams, and the entire staff at OOA
