Fully Accredited in Office Ambulatory Surgery Center for 18 years

I am so proud of my office and staff for once again passing our AAAHC surgery center accreditation.  Most surgeons offices do not have fully accredited surgery centers on site.  The reason for this is that very rigid standards are necessary and the process is work intensive and expensive.  We have to do numerous studies, emergency drills, and have reams of paperwork and policies to do on a weekly basis. Our office is inspected on a regular basis by AAAHC surveyors to ensure quality of care.  In effect, we have our own mini hospital and are held to much higher standards than the average office.  This work and accreditation makes us better and safer and allows us to follow our quest for patient safety and natural results.  My staff, especially our Human Resource Officer Ashley Gulak work very hard to maintain and uphold our accreditation status.  I can never thank them enough.
