First time I have had both specified on a drawing. It's a medical manifold made from 304 stainless. Is doing both processes common?

I think so. I believe Apex Metal Finishing in St Louis can do that.
If this is your first time doing medical, you better have your ducks in a row: material certs, heat treatment certs, dimensional documentation, etc. There is a reason that "just anybody" doesn't play in the medical playground. Best of luck to you.

Remember that medical manufacturer several years ago that omitted the ultrasonic cleaning from the spec? It saved them $1.50 each making the knee replacement. Then the cement wouldn't hold. Caused a lot of people a lot of pain and then they had to go back in and have them replaced. One of the few times in history that a lawyer did a lawsuit that wasn't a scam.

Our firm used them for years on an aerospace product used for testing oxygen compatibility. They did a great job for us and were very good on paperwork and certs that we required. There are other firms that do the same processes that may be closer to you.
