Asked By:Anhlilly in Tustin, California

Hi, If I am considering a surgeon, but the surgical facility he operates out of is AAAHC NOT AAAASF is that ok? Is AAAASF better or are the two accreditations just different but neither is superior. I know the anesthesiologist they use at the surgical center are all board certified doctors only. Trying to do my homework, worried about safety most. Thank you for your time and expertise.
