BOISE, Idaho - September 16, 2026 - Daniel Gay, DO, FACOS, recently earned accreditation from Surgical Review Corporation (SRC) as a Master Surgeon in Hernia Surgery. The designation recognizes his commitment to high standards for patient safety, surgical quality, and continuous improvement.
Status as an SRC-accredited Master Surgeon means Dr. Gay has met nationally and internationally recognized standards. Not all surgeons pursue accreditation, and among those who do, not all meet the standards to earn it.
"Patients deserve more than a technically successful operation. They deserve clear information, direct access to their surgeon, and a reliable system for follow-up and outcomes review," said Dr. Gay. "I pursued SRC accreditation because independent review holds every part of the practice to a measurable standard. For patients in the Treasure Valley, this designation provides another objective reason to feel confident in the care they receive."
Surgeons seeking SRC accreditation undergo an extensive assessment and inspection process to ensure they meet SRC's standards and requirements. These requirements include surgical volumes, facility equipment, clinical pathways and standardized operating procedures, patient education, and continuous quality assessment. Inspectors also educate staff in accredited departments on best practices to help improve care and services.
"We're proud to recognize Dr. Gay for his commitment to advancing and providing quality care for all patients," said Gary M. Pratt, CEO of SRC. "This accreditation signals that Dr. Gay is among the best in this specialty and is dedicated to delivering the highest level of care possible."
