AAAASF Certified Facility

Our office is accredited by the American Association for Accreditation of Ambulatory Surgery Facilities, Inc (AAAASF).

While the AAAASF accreditation process is voluntary, it has nonetheless received overwhelming recognition and support from both the surgical and the regulatory communities. To be accredited, surgery facilities must be owned and/or operated by the American Board of Medical Specialties Surgeons (ABMS), and these surgeons must also be board certified in approved surgical specialties. To date, approximately 625 ambulatory surgery centers and 50 facilities are in the process of becoming accredited, making this the single largest specialty surgery accreditation system in the world.

Accreditation consists of a three-fold review that includes a site visit, a panel assessment of site visit findings, and successful participation in a peer review/quality assurance program – the results of which must be reported to AAAASF.

These standards for accreditation enable surgeons operating outpatient surgery centers to develop a quality facility and ultimately improve patient care. We are proud to offer plastic surgery patients at our New Hampshire (NH) center this level of safety and convenience.

I am very pleased with the procedure. The clinical staff was very supportive and caring. They made the procedure much better than I expected. Dr. Zeff is great, he did a super job and called the very next day to check on me, which I thought was wonderful. I would recommend Dr. Zeff to anyone who is looking for cosmetic surgery.

I couldn't say enough about how wonderful everyone in the office was. Dr. Zeff and your entire staff are just wonderful!

Thank you so much for making this experience a positive one for me. See you soon.

Your services and staff are wonderful! Don't change a thing!

Dr. Zeff was exceptional! I could not ask for better results. I would recommend him to anyone who is considering plastic surgery.

Thank you, all, for a wonderful experience. I was not at all nervous as the staff made me feel so comfortable and "at home" during our visits. I WILL return in the future for my eyes (dark circles), and look forward to it.

I was very impressed by the staff and Dr. Zeff. It was a good experience and I look forward to visiting your office again for future services.

This was absolutely a fantastic experience.

Dr. Zeff and the staff made me feel comfortable and well informed through my entire experience. I would use Dr. Zeff's office for any future procedures without a doubt! I would be glad to recommend Dr. Zeff's office to any friend.

Thank you all so much! This has done wonders for my body image!

I have always wanted my stomach fixed. I had a wonderful experience in doing so. Thank you so much. If you have anyone who needs to talk to someone first hand about the surgery, please feel free to give them my name. See you in June.

Every experience, from my first phone call to your office, through surgery and post-op care, was superb. The office is spotless; the staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Zeff is personable and took the time to explain every procedure, comment, and concern I had. He is exceptional. I will gladly refer him if I have the opportunity.

Thank you to everyone at Dr. Zeff's office. Everyone made me feel so comfortable and I'm so pleased with the outcome! I could not be a happier person right now. Thank you.

I honestly can say I do not think that there is anything you can do to improve the operation that is being run there. Thank you all for the best care a person could ask for.

No need for improvement. Dr. Zeff, Lori and Cindy, the whole staff, were great. I would recommend you to anyone. Thank you for making my experience an enjoyable one.

The whole process and procedure was better than I ever expected. I felt very comfortable and confident in Dr. Zeff's abilities. I'm extremely pleased with the outcome.

I think you have it all figured out. I wouldn't change a thing. I couldn't be happier with the whole experience from beginning to end and I love the end results. It's only been 13 days and I feel so much better about myself already. Thank you so much!

Thank you for making me feel better about myself. I can't wait for two more months to go by to see even more results. Pat told me it takes about three months. Thanks to you all.

What I really appreciated was the fact that I was a patient with lots of questions, and when I called they were either answered by whoever answered or someone called me back. Thank you.

Again, the service I received at both Dr. Zeff's office and Northeast Surgical Care was excellent. I honestly cannot think of a single thing I would improve. I have to commend Dr. Zeff for having such kind, wonderful people on his staff. Having cosmetic surgery is a big decision and one that can be very nerve-wracking. Everyone I came in contact with was gentle, understanding and very knowledgeable. If I ever decided to return, I would only see Dr. Zeff and would absolutely refer all my friends and family. Thank you – I am thrilled with my results.

Dear Dr. Zeff, Office and Clinical Staff,

I can't thank you enough for the quality of care I received throughout my surgical experience with each and every one of you. From office staff, nursing, surgeon and anesthesia, you are really a commendable group and I thank you for the expert care you provided me. Being a nurse and a hospital-based employee for 15 years, I was probably one of your biggest critics. I was really nervous about having surgery outside of the typical O.R., but after experiencing Dr. Zeff and his surgical team I can honestly say you are a step above any surgical experience I have ever had in a hospital.

In addition, I'd like to give a special thank you to the anesthesiologist, Dr. Baker, I believe. Considering I was a fresh post-op, I was amazed at how well I felt after waking from surgery. My pain was minimal, I had no nausea at all, and my head was much clearer than I ever expected. I felt awake and alert, providing a much better post-operative experience.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
