Surrey Memorial Hospital was one of 77 hospitals recognized by the American College of Surgeons for its surgical outcomes – the only B.C. hospital to earn the honour.

Surrey Memorial Hospital has been recognized internationally for its surgical care. 

Surrey Memorial Hospital has participated in the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS NSQIP) since 2006. The hospitals in the program must track the outcomes of surgeries, which are then analyzed by the American College of Surgeons, with their reports sent back to the hospitals.

"The program focuses on reducing surgical complications and enhancing patient outcomes through a data-driven, evidence-based approach," reads a Fraser Health release.
