Crystal Clinic Orthopaedic Center Achieves National Recognition
Crystal Clinic Orthopaedic Center, a physician-owned hospital system, has made headlines by being recognized as one of the select few hospitals in the country to be named to the prestigious list of America’s 100 Best Hospitals for Joint Replacement. This notable achievement by Healthgrades marks the fourth consecutive year that Crystal Clinic has attained this honor, which underscores their commitment to delivering exceptional clinical outcomes in knee and hip replacement procedures.
Excellence in Orthopaedic Surgery
In addition to this recognition, Crystal Clinic received the Outpatient Orthopedic Surgery Excellence Award™ for demonstrating superior outcomes in not just knee and hip replacements, but also in back and neck surgeries, as well as rotator cuff surgeries. When you combine these accolades with a consistent 5-star rating for total knee replacement over the last 15 years and a similar rating in spinal fusion surgeries for 13 straight years, it’s evident that Crystal Clinic is a leader in the field of orthopaedic care.
Patient-Centered Care Philosophy
"At Crystal Clinic Orthopaedic Center, our singular focus is to provide the highest level of orthopaedic and reconstructive care possible," expressed Daniel Ferry, M.B.A., CHFP, the President and Chief Executive Officer. He highlighted that Healthgrades' objective assessment, based on their comprehensive clinical performance data, affirms their dedication to ensuring outstanding patient care year after year. This commitment places them alongside the very best institutions for joint replacement across the nation.
Understanding Healthgrades' Assessment Methodology
Healthgrades evaluates around 4,500 hospitals, assessing their performance in clinical outcomes across 31 specific procedures and conditions. For a hospital to qualify for an award in joint replacement, such as the Joint Replacement Excellence Award, it undergoes rigorous evaluation. Each hospital is assigned to one of three performance brackets based on their results from total knee and hip replacements. From these evaluations, Healthgrades identifies the top 100 hospitals that excel in joint replacement care.
