Englewood Health has once again received national recognition for its breast cancer program, earning reaccreditation from the National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers (NAPBC). This prestigious designation, a quality program of the American College of Surgeons, affirms the hospital’s long-standing commitment to delivering exceptional, comprehensive care for patients with breast cancer.
The Leslie Simon Breast Cancer and Cytodiagnosis Center at Englewood Health has maintained NAPBC accreditation since 2009, a testament to its dedication to multidisciplinary care and continuous quality improvement. The accreditation ensures that patients have access to a full spectrum of services, from state-of-the-art diagnostics and personalized treatment plans to genetic counseling, psychosocial support, and long-term survivorship care.
“Our center is deeply rooted in the idea that quality breast care must be both precise and personal,” said Dr. Mindy Goldfischer, chief of breast imaging and medical director of the center. “This reaccreditation is an opportunity to recognize the work our imaging, clinical, and support teams do every day to provide clarity and confidence to our patients at what is often the most vulnerable time in their lives.”
As an NAPBC-accredited institution, Englewood Health is also recognized as an American College of Surgeons Surgical Quality Partner. This distinction reinforces the hospital’s adherence to the highest standards in surgical care and patient safety, providing an extra layer of confidence for patients.
“Being reaccredited by the NAPBC reflects the expertise of our team and the strength of our patient-first model,” said Dr. Jennifer Marti, chief of breast surgery and medical director of the Breast Cancer Program. “Every person who walks through our doors deserves not only advanced, evidence-based care, but also compassion and partnership throughout their treatment journey.”
Whether a patient is visiting for a routine screening or a new diagnosis, Englewood Health’s program offers coordinated, expert care in a healing and supportive environment. To learn more about the center, visit englewoodhealth.org/breast.
