Everest Surgery Center Achieves ACHC Accreditation: Raising the Standard for Eye Care in Midlothian

September 16, 2026

Texas Eye and Cataract is proud to announce that our dedicated outpatient surgical facility, Everest Surgery Center, has officially achieved full accreditation from the Accreditation Commission for Health Care (ACHC).

This major milestone validates Everest Surgery Center’s ongoing commitment to clinical excellence, rigorous safety protocols, and compassionate patient care in Midlothian, Ellis County, and the broader Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.

What Does ACHC Accreditation Mean for Our Patients?

Achieving accreditation is a rigorous undertaking. The Accreditation Commission for Health Care (ACHC) is a nationally recognized, independent nonprofit organization that has symbolized healthcare quality and safety since 1986.

Holding CMS deeming authority from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and ISO 9001:2015 certification, the ACHC subjects ambulatory surgery centers to a comprehensive, unannounced evaluation. To earn this accreditation, Everest Surgery Center demonstrated that its facility, surgical protocols, safety procedures, and medical team meet or exceed stringent national benchmarks.

For patients visiting Texas Eye and Cataract, this accreditation provides independent assurance of:

  • Uncompromising Safety: Adherence to strict surgical, infection control, and administrative guidelines.
  • Continuous Quality Improvement: Ongoing performance monitoring to maintain industry-leading clinical standards.
  • Seamless Surgical Coordination: State-of-the-art technology paired with proven clinical workflows designed around patient comfort and visual outcomes.

“Our vision from day one has been to build the clinical resources necessary for our community to receive world-class eye care close to home,” says D. Sobti, MD, ophthalmic surgeon at Everest Surgery Center and founder of Texas Eye and Cataract. “Earning ACHC accreditation affirms the intentional care standards we built into the facility from the ground up, and it reflects the deep dedication of our surgical team.”

World-Class Eye Surgery, Close to Home

For years, patients in Ellis County often had to navigate heavy traffic and long commutes into Dallas or Fort Worth for advanced surgical eye care.

Everest Surgery Center was established to provide an alternative: elite, advanced outpatient surgery in a convenient, localized setting. Located at 2251 Freeman Lane in Midlothian, the surgery center operates directly alongside Texas Eye and Cataract’s clinic suites.

This adjoining setup creates a unified continuum of care:

  • Initial Evaluation & Advanced Diagnostics at Texas Eye and Cataract.
  • Customized Surgical Planning tailored to each patient’s unique lifestyle and visual needs.
  • Outpatient Surgical Procedures at Everest Surgery Center with our familiar, specialized clinical team.
  • Postoperative Checkups & Recovery Management all within the same trusted facility.

As Midlothian and surrounding North Texas communities expand, Texas Eye and Cataract remains committed to expanding local access to premier ophthalmic services, state-of-the-art intraocular lens (IOL) technologies, and proven cataract solutions.
