The Surgery Center of Cullman opened in December of 2006.  The Surgery Center was formed by a group of local physicians in partnership with Surgical Care Affiliates.  This group of physicians believed that by creating an outpatient surgery center they could serve the community of Cullman better by being able to give a safe, affordable and convenient alternative to overnight hospitalization for many types of surgical services.

Our Medical Executive Committee and Governing Body meets quarterly to provide review of Performance Improvement activities, Patient Safety activities, Risk Management activities, Patient Satisfaction activities and other outcomes related to the facility.  We maintain the standards set forth by the licensure division of the State of Alabama and the Accreditation Association of Ambulatory Surgery Division.  We are subject to unannounced surveys by the state department and undergo a rigorous survey every three years by AAAHC.  The Surgery Center of Cullman does very little media advertising and works diligently to build its business on the basis of patient, visitor, and physician satisfaction.  Teammates recognize the patients, visitors and physicians as customers and treat them with courtesy and respect and provide them with a quality experience.
