4. Hospital JCI Accreditations

Our physicians perform the procedures requiring general anesthesia or sedation at affiliated Hospitals that are Accredited by the United States J.C.I. (Joint Commission International). Most procedures are performed in the hospitals’ “Day Care Units” operated by skilled nursing staff and equipped with state-of-the-art medical technology. The JCI approval indicates the continued compliance of these hospitals with the internationally recognized standards and is a symbol of quality in providing safe and effective care to patients.
