Health. The Center is one of only five accredited facilities on Maryland’s Eastern

Press Release Body = Vincent J. Perrotta, MD, President of the Center
for Aesthetic Surgery has announced that the Center has achieved
accreditation by the
Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC / Accreditation
Association). The Center for Aesthetic
Surgery is one of only five accredited
facilities on Maryland’s Eastern Shore and the only accredited facility dedicated to
plastic and cosmetic surgery.
“Accreditation underscores our long-standing commitment to providing the highest
possible levels of quality care to the communities we serve”, said Dr. Perrotta. “We
are pleased and proud to have our efforts recognized with this accreditation.”
Status as an accredited organization means The Center for Aesthetic Surgery has
passed a series of rigorous and nationally recognized standards for the provision of
quality health care, set by the Accreditation Association. Over 2,600 ambulatory
health care organizations across the United States are accredited by the AAAHC.
Roy Grekin, MD, Accreditation Association President commented, “Achieving
accreditation demands a high level of dedication and effort. Dr. Perrotta and the
Center for Aesthetic Surgery are to be commended for this accomplishment.”
Ambulatory health care organizations seeking accreditation by the AAAHC undergo an
extensive on-site, peer-based survey of its facilities and services. Not all
ambulatory health care organizations seek accreditation; not all undergoing the
on-site survey are granted accreditation.
Among the types of ambulatory health care organizations that can seek AAAHC
accreditation are ambulatory and office-based surgery centers, single and
multi-specialty group practices, college health centers, dental group practices,
community health centers, occupational health centers and managed care
organizations.
The Center for Aesthetic Surgery is dedicated to the patients of Peninsula Plastic
Surgery. Its mission is to provide comprehensive cosmetic
surgical care in an
atmosphere of privacy, comfort and excellence. For the convenience of the patients
of Peninsula Plastic Surgery, the Center for Aesthetic Surgery is attached to the
Salisbury office located at 314 W. Carroll Street.
