In April, the Society for Gastrointestinal Nurses and Associates (SGNA) teamed up with Proctor & Gamble to select a GI Office the Year through responses to patient surveys.  The criteria included quality of patient care from initial contact through diagnosis and treatment of the patient's condition.  There was a threshold for number of responses received in order to be considered.  The Iowa Clinic Gastroenterology Department and The Iowa Clinic Endoscopy Center were selected as the GI Office of the Year for 2007.  There have been no winners in Iowa for the past two years.  The staff was presented with a plaque to display in each department. 

The Iowa Clinic Endoscopy Center is accreditated by the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC).
