Who We Are
Milestone Surgery Center is a physician-owned, multi-specialty ambulatory surgery center founded in December 2018 in Parker, Colorado. Our specialties include cosmetic/plastic surgery, general surgery, gynecology, pain management, urology and urogynecology.
At Milestone Surgery Center, we are committed to excellence in our industry. We are proud to announce that we have been awarded another three-year accreditation in April 2025, a testament to our dedication to quality, integrity, and continuous improvement.
“Milestone Surgery Center is the culmination of a 20-year dream of developing an ambulatory surgical center dedicated to women’s functional and aesthetic needs. A place where surgeons can take patients with gynecologic needs who may also desire reconstructive and cosmetic surgery performed in one surgery setting. Such a center would be the first of its kind in Colorado and require the participation of several specialties to include: Gynecology, Urology, Colorectal, Plastics, General Surgery, and Pain Management.”
–Oscar A. Aguirre, MD, Founder and Medical Director

What is an ASC and what are the benefits?
Ambulatory Surgery Centers (ASCs) are health care facilities that offer patients the convenience of having surgeries and procedures performed safely outside the hospital setting. Since their inception more than four decades ago, ASCs have demonstrated an exceptional ability to improve quality and customer service while simultaneously reducing costs. At a time when most developments in health care services and technology typically come with a higher price tag, ASCs stand out as an exception to the rule.

Quality of Care
- Thanks to major advances in surgical techniques, anesthesia and pain management, ASCs today routinely—and safely—perform most outpatient surgery procedures, including total joint replacements.
- Because ASCs specialize in the procedures they perform, they are able to concentrate on patient safety and the patient experience and have an excellent record of safety and quality outcomes for patients.
- Just like in hospital operating rooms, the surgeons, nurses and medical professionals in ASCs follow a very specific set of protocols and procedures that consistently lead to excellent results for surgical patients.
Regulation and Oversight
- ASCs function just like hospital outpatient departments and, like hospitals, ASCs must comply with a wide range of laws, rules and regulations. Most ASCs are Medicare certified, and many are accredited by the major independent healthcare rating agencies.
- ASCs are also required to maintain a strict sanitary environment; every ASC must establish and maintain programs and procedures for preventing infections.
- Similarly, ASCs must conduct regular, comprehensive assessments of the quality of care they provide to their patients.
When it comes to the emphasis placed on patient safety, there is no difference between a hospital and a surgery center.
