CPS Facility

This website is devoted to the Center for Plastic Surgery (commonly referred to on this site as CPS) and the practice of Vincent N. Zubowicz M.D., F.A.C.S, the owner and operator of CPS. Dr. Zubowicz and his professional team provide a wide range of plastic surgery services with a focus on aesthetic surgery of the aging face, aesthetic breast surgery and body contouring.

The Center for Plastic Surgery is located at 365 E. Paces Ferry Rd. NE in the Buckhead neighborhood ofAtlanta, Georgia. CPS is a fully licensed by the state of Georgia as an Ambulatory Surgical Facility. The Center is also accredited by the American Association for Accreditation of Ambulatory Surgery Facilities and inspected annually for compliance with these organizations' requirements.

The Center has two fully equipped operating rooms and three recovery room equipped for even the most complex operations. Patients can choose to have local, MAC (twilight), or general anesthesia and are continually monitored by our team of (MD) anesthesiologists using their expert knowledge and the highest quality equipment available. Our first priority is to serve the safety and welfare of our patients.

We provide a private, comfortable alternative to an outpatient hospital setting. Our patients' need for privacy, care and safety are met with courtesy and professionalism. Our goal is to provide the best environment for each of our patients so that surgery can be approached with comfort and confidence.

The beautiful decorated extended care facility is available for patients who wish to stay the first night following their surgery. The overnight stay may be a requirement depending on the extent of the patients' operation. Our qualified registered nursing staff will attend to our patients' every need in a room designed for comfort and privacy. Provisions for at home nursing assistance as well as transportation and hotel accommodations can also be arranged by our staff of professionals.

Because we are a privately owned outpatient specialty facility, we can offer our services and expertise at a cost below that of area hospitals. Our costs are controlled and limited to our specialty, allowing us to provide the very best in quality and efficiency. We also offer free on-site parking for all visitors.

What is the advantage of a free-standing facility over a hospital based operating room?

CPS is more convenient and efficient than any large, general purpose operating facility. The operating rooms are dedicated to a narrow range of procedures. Hospitals, unfortunately, harbor all sorts of agressive and resistant bacteria. This is not a knock on hospitals, just a statement of the reality of the hospital environment.

What's important about having a state license?

Maybe your life. The state inspects our operating room each year to make sure that we are living up to all our standards of excellence and performance. Many operating rooms function without such credentialing and therefore have no one to answer to. Most horror stories about outpatient surgery come from facilities that are not licensed or accredited. The state has no jurisdiction whatsoever over those entities.

What is the significance of certification by the AAAASC?

This certifying body looks very specifically at how we deal with patients relative to what we are-an ambulatory center for plastic surgery. We are surveyed by plastic surgeons who can focus more keenly on our patient population and their needs. They are very helpful in integrating the best practices of the various centers around the country.
