Aviv Clinics Becomes First US Center to Earn UHMS Accreditation for Emerging Hyperbaric Medicine
January 14, 2026
The program combines advanced diagnostics, multidisciplinary clinical expertise, and personalized plans to improve cognitive, physical, and overall functional performance in a medical, evidence-based setting.
Aviv emphasizes its hyperbaric program is medical and evidence-based, not wellness-focused, integrating diagnostics and personalized treatment to drive outcomes.
UHMS accreditation is recognized by The Joint Commission as the exclusive hyperbaric-specific certification through its complementary accrediting organization initiative, with months of staff preparation behind Aviv’s attainment.
Dr. Amir Hadanny, Chief Medical Officer and CEO, says the accreditation validates Aviv’s scientific and clinical foundation and reinforces hyperbaric medicine as a rigorously studied discipline.
Aviv Clinics is a leading research and treatment hub for cognitive and functional decline, and it partners with the Sagol Center at Shamir Medical Center in Israel to advance evidence-based aging-related care.
The broader program and partnership with the Sagol Center underscore Aviv’s aging-related cognitive and physical decline treatments as evidence-based.
