Indispensable
"Building an ASC is such a complicated endeavor that the single most important person is the consultant. I have been extremely impressed by Progressive's knowledge, resourcefulness, and responsiveness. They know every aspect of the industry, and have the experience and the contacts that are indispensable. I couldn't be happier with their services."

Results were unparalleled
"Progressive Surgical Solutions has a broad and deep fund of knowledge and experience in ASC planning, development, implementation and start-up…the results were unparalleled…I am confident that if we had contracted more completely with PSS from the onset, our initial start-up issues would have been avoided. PSS is highly capable and provided expert service that was tailored to our center's needs."

Stellar and second to none
"Probably the most critical ingredient in the execution of a plan to build and launch an ophthalmic ASC is to involve an ASC consultant from day one. In short, the PSS team has an incredible ability to sift through the noise and get the job done, expertly and expeditiously and most importantly, make you feel they are part of your staff. The entire Progressive Surgical Solutions team is stellar and second to none. I cannot think of a reason that I would ever have embarked on this project without them."

Surveyors complimented us
"Hattiesburg Eye Clinic Cataract Surgery Center is pleased to recommend Progressive Surgical Solutions. I can't imagine pulling this off without PSS's help. We were very prepared for our Medicare and AAAHC survey, and by the way, both surveyors complimented us on the organization and completeness of our Policy and Procedure Manuals. PSS made a very stressful time manageable and successful"

Wealth of expertise
"PSS was invaluable in establishing the Kensington Eye Institute. They were fully engaged throughout the development process, offering their insights and expertise on the design and layout, staffing, supply chain, policies & procedures, etc. No detail (or job!!!) was too big or small for them. I would not hesitate to recommend PSS to any company establishing an ASC. Their wealth of expertise is a great resource"

Vast knowledge and experience
"We had the pleasure and good fortune to work with PSS on the development of our ASC. This company was admirably capable of navigating past potential problems and pitfalls with grace and expertise. They got the job done with no significant mishaps or expensive oversights. The level of expertise, attention to detail, vast knowledge and experience that they brought to the project, in many cases, exceeded the performance of many of our other highly reputable consultants (attorneys, architects, etc). They did an outstanding job for us."

Moral support
"As an independent facility, the Center did not have the benefit of having a family of other centers from which to draw expertise. Much of the praise we have received to date and successes we anticipate will be attributable to PSS. They provided terrific professional insights, technical resources, moral support and friendship over the course of our development process. From helping to refine the facility design, to helping to standardize equipment and protocols across our diverse physician group, to many other areas, PSS's fingerprints can be found all over our center."

"PSS provided experience and knowledge in all aspects of developing and managing a freestanding surgical facility. PSS was instrumental in helping the center set goals and target dates, stay focused and to think positive. I believe that their support was a part of helping meet regulatory guidelines and standards that have led to the centers compliance to Medicare and other state licensures standards."

eSupport - "Training Modules"
“We recently had a Medicare audit at our ASC Facility. INFECTION CONTROL was a very big focus of the audit. I was happy that I could present the auditors with our professionally written policies for them to review. This audit made me appreciate, even more, the Progressive Surgical Solutions eSupport website. In particular, I am grateful for the INFECTION CONTROL MODULE. I was asked what training I had had to qualify me for the position of Infection Control Coordinator; I had not had any training at the time. The first night of the audit I came home and took the IC module online. I BROUGHT THE RESULTS BACK TO THE AUDITORS THE NEXT DAY AND THEY ACCEPTED THIS AS MY TRAINING. Thank you to those of you at Progressive Surgical Solutions who bent over backwards to help me get the IC certificate, and helped me through the auditing process”.
