Choosing where to have surgery is one of the most important healthcare decisions a patient can make. At HonorHealth John C. Lincoln Medical Center, patients now have an added reason to feel confident in their choice: the hospital has earned SRC Center of Excellence in Robotic Surgery accreditation from Surgical Review Corporation (SRC).
The medical center offers robotic-assisted surgery across multiple specialties, including general surgery, gynecology, urology and oncology. The SRC accreditation recognizes the program's focus on surgical expertise, patient safety, standardized clinical pathways and continuous quality improvement.
"Every surgical procedure is built on preparation, teamwork and a commitment to doing what's best for each patient," said Ivor Benjamin, MD, chair of HonorHealth John C. Lincoln Surgical Center of Excellence and gynecologic oncologist at HonorHealth. “This designation reflects the work our surgeons, nurses and care teams put in every day to maintain high standards and continually improve how we deliver surgical treatment. For our patients, it's independent confirmation that our robotic surgery program meets rigorous standards for safety, quality and continuous improvement."
The recognition also extends to three HonorHealth physicians, who earned SRC Robotic Surgeon of Excellence accreditation:
- Ivor Benjamin, MD, gynecologic oncologist
- Roozbeh Rassadi, MD, general surgeon
- John Davitt, MD, general surgeon
The individual surgeon accreditations complement the hospital's designation and recognize physicians for their expertise and commitment to high-quality robotic surgical care.
Together, the hospital and physician accreditations reflect the medical center's continued focus on advancing robotic surgery, strengthening surgical quality and providing patients with access to specialized surgical expertise close to home.
