New Rochelle, NY (PRWEB) July 22, 2006 — Pursuing its mission of advancing outpatient surgery, Somnia Inc. has guided Leyla Plastic Surgery Center/Ganchi Plastic Surgery through the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) national quality approval process.

Leyla Plastic Surgery Center/Ganchi Plastic Surgery volunteered to submit itself to the stringent survey process and is the only plastic surgery center in Wayne, New Jersey to pass JCAHO’s survey.
