Why is it significant that the Bariatric Surgery Program at Good Samaritan Hospital is recognized as a Bariatric Surgery Center of Excellence by the American Society for Bariatric Surgery?
As a Center of Excellence, the Bariatric Surgery Program at Good Samaritan Hospital is formally recognized for high-quality care in weight loss surgery. By definition, programs with ASBS Center of Excellence designations practice only top-quality care, ensuring efficacy of the procedure with each patient to the best of its abilities. This designation also is important because it means we can provide care to Medicare patients – only ASBS Centers of Excellence are approved for these surgeries.
