Medical Group Merger In Response to Changing Healthcare Market

Radiology, Inc. and LaPorte Radiology, Inc.  are pleased to announce that they will combine operations effective January 1, 2016, and operate under the name, “Radiology, Inc.”  The two practices, consisting of over 35 radiologists, will be the largest private radiology practice in the Michiana area and will service five hospitals and several outpatient clinics in the Elkhart County, LaPorte County, Starke County, and St. Joseph County areas.  When the combination is complete, Radiology, Inc. will offer its patients, hospitals, clinics and referring physicians the broadest range of sub specialty radiology services in the area including Breast Imaging and Intervention, Nuclear Medicine, Neuroradiology, Pediatric Radiology, as well as Interventional Radiology Procedures.  Dr. Smari Thordarson, President of LaPorte Radiology, Inc. said, “The broader service area will enhance the combined group’s ability to recruit needed subspecialty trained physicians which, formerly, might only have been possible in a larger metropolitan area.”

Dr. Pedro Miro, Chair of the Executive Board of Radiology, Inc. said, “Healthcare is changing on a national and local level.  We feel this combination properly positions our practice to better meet the demands of the future, while still providing exceptional value, sub-specialty expertise and high quality medical services to our community at large.”
