Connecticut was not among the highest rated states for overall access to ambulatory centers according to the first rankings of the class of medical facility by US News & World Report, however Stamford Ambulatory Center was recognized as a top performer within the field of orthopedic and spine surgeries.
5,000 ambulatory surgery centers across the country were ranked on criteria such as how successfully they avoided complications, ER visits, unplanned hospitalizations, and other undesirable outcomes alongside overall patient outcomes and risk-adjustment.
According to the criteria, the Report named Stamford Ambulatory Center among the best in the country for its orthopedic and spine care services.
“It is an honor to be recognized by US News and World Report. Our exceptional staff deserves this acknowledgement for going above and beyond for our patients each and every day,” said Ed Staunton, Executive Director of the Stamford ASC. “This facility was designed by, and for, the orthopedic and spine surgeons at Orthopaedic & Neurosurgery Specialists, Connecticut’s premier Orthopedic and Neurosurgery practice. Our mutual commitment to safety, clinical excellence and patient experience have enabled us to provide outstanding surgical outcomes for countless patients over the years. As new techniques and technologies allow ONS surgeons to perform a greater variety of procedures in our outpatient setting, we are now providing the same great experience, and at-home recovery, for an increasing number of joint replacement and spine surgery patients.”
