MONTROSE, CO – Black Canyon Surgical Center is continuing to demonstrate their unwavering commitment to quality care, having been named one of the best ambulatory surgery centers in the nation.
In a detailed analysis of nearly 5,000 ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) across the United States, Black Canyon Surgical Center was named one of the top facilities in the nation, specifically in the field of Ophthalmology – the diagnosis and treatment of eye disorders. Black Canyon Surgical Center offers various Ophthalmology procedures, including Cataract Surgery, Glaucoma Surgery, Pterigium Removal, and Blepharoplasty.
“It is an honor to be recognized in this way amongst other Ambulatory Surgery Centers across the nation. We are humbled by our achievements and proud to serve our community’s surgical service needs,” said Dan Soderlind, Administrator for Black Canyon Surgical Center. “Patients have a choice for where they receive their care and this is yet another indicator that a patient can find high quality and cost-effective care locally. These are attributes our business invests an enormous amount of energy and time on.”
This recognition given by U.S. News & World Report is the result of evaluations in four specialty areas: Colonoscopy & Endoscopy, Orthopedics & Spine, Ophthalmology, and Urology. They reached their conclusions by gathering three years of Medicare data to evaluate the 5,000 surgical centers, focusing on criteria such as successfully avoided complications, ER visits, unplanned hospitalizations, and other undesirable outcomes. Black Canyon Surgical Center was exemplary in this area, boasting a very low rate of unexpected complications when compared to their competitors.
Of the 141 ambulatory surgical centers currently located in Colorado, only 11 were recognized by U.S. News with this recognition. Black Canyon Surgical Center was named among the best overall facilities in Colorado to receive Ophthalmological care. In addition to this year’s recognition, in 2023 the Black Canyon Surgical Center was named one of America’s best Ambulatory Surgery Centers by Newsweek.
