Internal Association of HealthCare Professionals adds two radiologists

The Internal Association of HealthCare Professionals added two radiologists to its organization last week.

Zachary Kilpatrick Jr., a radiologist working out of his private practice in West Columbia, S.C., specializes in adult radiology, pediatric radiology, head to toe MRI and advanced imaging. The Leading Physicians of the World, a subsidiary group of the International Association of HealthCare Professionals, named him a distinguished member of the medical community.

The group also honored Jon Michael Banas, a diagnostic radiologist based out of Fort Myers, Fla., practices at the Radiology Regional Center, a physician-owned and managed practice. He is also affiliated with the Gulf Coast Regional Medical Center in Panama City, Fla, which specializes in cardiovascular and women’s health.
