This facility is accredited by

JCAHO
Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations


What does this mean to you?

JCAHO accreditation is voluntary. To prepare for review, our office made a commitment to improvement and worked together to look carefully at what it could do better to ensure safety and quality of care. Next, JCAHO surveyors were invited to the facility for an intense on-site review. We received Accreditation with Full Standards Compliance for three years. Our next survey, an unannounced one, should occur in early 2006.

We are very proud of this accomplishment. Only a small percentage of outpatient settings have gone through this evaluation. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons mandates their members who operate in an office based surgical facility achieve and maintain this accreditation.

If you have any concerns about the quality or delivery of the care you received from this facility we urge you to bring your concern to the attention of our physicians or management staff. If your concern is not addressed to your satisfaction, you should contact the JCAHO via their website at www.jcaho.org or via telephone at 1-800-994-6610.

Congratulations on making the choice to utilize an accredited JCAHO facility.
