Dr. Kerry Assil’s Cedars-Sinai 90210 Surgery Center has again been named the Best Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC) in the United States by Newsweek Magazine. This recognition, for the second consecutive year, highlights the center’s commitment to excellence in surgical care.
Dr. Assil, a board-certified ophthalmologist and the medical director of Assil Gaur Eye Institute (AGEI), founded the surgery center in 2005. The honored ASC became a partnership with Cedars-Sinai Hospital System in 2015.
The rise of ambulatory surgery centers in Healthcare
“Across the United States, there are thousands of Medicare-certified ambulatory surgery centers encompassing various surgical specialties,” said Nancy Cooper, Newsweek’s global editor-in-chief. “To help our readers make informed health care decisions, Newsweek has partnered with the respected global research firm Statista for the fourth consecutive year to name America’s Best Ambulatory Surgery Centers.”
Ambulatory Surgery Centers represent a significant advancement in the healthcare sector, offering more accessible and efficient surgical care. These centers, including the 90210 Surgery Medical Center, provide a range of surgical procedures like cataract operations and colonoscopies. The benefit of these centers is their ability to offer quick, same-day procedures, which greatly enhances patient satisfaction and reduces the complexities associated with traditional surgery.
90210 Surgery Medical Center: A benchmark in surgical excellence
The Dr. Assil-founded 90210 Surgery Medical Center set a new standard in surgical care. In 2023, it outperformed other facilities nationwide, with a 94.12% performance score, surpassing top contenders like second-place UCLA Health-Westwood ASC (90.76%) and third-place Duke Health’s Davis Ambulatory Surgical Center (88.15%). In collaboration with Statista, this ranking by Newsweek was based on quality of care, performance data, and peer recommendations.

Dr. Assil’s unique vision for surgical safety and patient care
Dr. Assil’s vision for the 90210 Surgery Medical Center was to create a facility focused on microsurgical procedures in a clean, infection-free environment.
“Anyone going to have surgery with us should be extra confident and comfortable knowing the level of quality and care extends to everything we touch,” said AGEI medical director Dr. Assil. “One of my goals in creating this facility was that it would be dedicated to only performing clean microsurgical procedures. In other words, a surgery center devoid of infectious disease for extra patient safety.”
This approach to patient safety and care has been a cornerstone of the center’s philosophy, ensuring that patients receive the highest standard of treatment.
