Mission

The mission of Colonial Heights Surgery Center is to provide high quality and cost effective care to the community with an emphasis on customer service to our patients, patient's family, physicians and employees.

Quality Improvement

Colonial Heights Surgery Center is committed to providing the highest quality care and services possible. We participate in HCA’s national quality improvement measurement program, “Best Practices.” This program measures data on a monthly basis, and compares it to the other surgical centers nationwide, and then reports back to us where we stand in comparison. Colonial Heights Surgery Center also participates in the American Association of Ambulatory Surgery Centers. This organization is nationally recognized, and also gathers data, comparing and sharing results with their members nationwide.
