The practice earned AAAHC's QUAD A accreditation for its Tiburon outpatient surgical suite, meeting hospital-level safety standards before accepting patients.
NorCal Plastic Surgery's new Tiburon office has been accredited by the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care under its QUAD A program, the practice said Tuesday.
The facility opened in 2025 and sits between San Francisco and Marin County. Dr. Tim Rankin, the practice's lead surgeon and a 2025 Bay Area Top Plastic Surgeons pick, said the accreditation was a baseline requirement before opening.
"QUAD A accreditation was the baseline requirement before we opened our doors," Rankin said. "Our patients deserve a facility that meets the same standards they would expect anywhere we operate."
QUAD A is granted after an independent on-site evaluation confirms a facility meets national standards for outpatient surgical care. The accreditation covers safety requirements equivalent to hospital-based surgical settings, staff credentialing benchmarks, and periodic review cycles to retain the designation.
Rankin specializes in facelift surgery, mommy makeovers, breast augmentation, and medical spa treatments. The Tiburon location is accepting new patients now.
