Dr. Emily Moriarty, Dr. Paul Phillips, and Dr. Joan Lee are honored to be part of the team at Hunterdon Center for Surgery to receive U.S. News’ highest possible rating, “High Performing”, for Best Ophthalmology.
Hunterdon Center for Surgery has been recognized among the Best Ambulatory Surgery Centers in U.S. News & World Report’s latest study. U.S. News’ second annual ratings offer Americans data-driven insights into their local ambulatory surgery center to inform their choices for quality outpatient surgery centers. In collaboration with Care Journey by Arcadia, U.S. News evaluated 4,357 surgery centers nationwide across four separate specialty areas. Hunterdon Center for Surgery has been identified as a Best Ambulatory Surgery Center for Ophthalmology.
Ambulatory surgery centers were evaluated entirely on objective, risk-adjusted measures of their patients’ outcomes, including how successfully they avoided complications, ER visits, unplanned hospitalizations, and other undesirable outcomes. To ensure fair comparisons among ambulatory surgery centers, the analysis accounted for each patient’s pre-existing conditions and other risk factors. U.S. News recognizes only the highest-rated surgery centers in each specialty that satisfy U.S. News’ statistical assessment of performance; fewer than 17% of evaluated facilities earned a Best Ambulatory Surgery Centers rating for the 2025 study.
