The state-of-the-art equipment and board-certified medical staff received accreditation for their achievement in high practice standards after a peer-review evaluation. Evaluations were conducted by board-certified physicians and medical physicists who are experts in the field. They assessed the qualifications of the personnel and the adequacy of the facility’s equipment.

The Breast Care Center was also recognized as a Certified Quality Breast Center of Excellence, Certification Level III – the highest certification level awarded by the National Consortium of Breast Centers National Quality Measures for Breast Centers™ Program (NQMBC™).
