As an NAPBC accredited institution, Southcoast Health has also become an ACS Surgical Quality Partner, signifying our dedication to consistently improving procedures and approaches to breast cancer care and ensuring that our patients are receiving the highest standards of surgical safety and quality.

“Earning NAPBC reaccreditation is a reflection of our team’s unwavering commitment to providing the highest quality breast cancer care,” said Maureen Chung, MD, PhD, Medical Director of the Southcoast Health Breast Care Program. “It affirms that our patients are receiving nationally recognized, evidence-based care, delivered with compassion, precision, and a true multidisciplinary approach. This milestone is something our entire community can be proud of.”

Receiving this reaccreditation from the NAPBC means our breast center has met rigorous national standards for providing high-quality, comprehensive breast care.
