What does this mean for our patients?

As a MBSAQIP Accredited Comprehensive Center for bariatric surgery, St. Luke’s has met and maintained strict requirements with regard to quality, outcomes and the level of resources available to our patients. This distinction is awarded by an independent organization called MBSAQIP (Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program) and involves a completely voluntary assessment of our program. All our surgery locations, Allentown, Monroe and Warren, have achieved this designation.
