Our Team

Surgery performed at a CAAASF / CPSO facility must be completed by a fully qualified surgeon who is certified by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada. The surgeon must be eligible to perform the same surgical procedures in an accredited hospital. This prevents surgeons from providing patients with surgeries they are not qualified to perform.

Only an anesthesiologist certified by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada is able to administer general anaesthetic in a facility accredited by the CAAASF / CPSO.  The anaesthesiolgist must remain at the facility until the last patient of the day has regained full consciousness.

All assisting personnel responsible for direct patient care must also be certified for their role within an accredited facility, as they would be in a general hospital. A copy of their current license and CPR training must be kept on file. They must be current members of their respective organizations.  These personnel must all have full knowledge of the surgical procedures being performed and be approved by a qualified surgeon. Staff have ACLS (Advanced Cardiac Life Support) training as required.
