Ridgeview's Oncology Program has received approval by the American College of Surgeons (ACoS) Commission on Cancer. In 2009, Ridgeview received approval "with commendation" from the ACoS Commission. This status is given only to facilities that have voluntarily committed to providing the highest level of quality cancer care and that undergo a rigorous evaluation process and review of their performance.
