- SimonMed
Health
SimonMed is one of the largest independent outpatient medical imaging providers and physician radiology practices in the United States. Dr. Simon, a board-certified radiologist, established the practice to make advanced imaging technology more affordable and accessible within the community. He graduated from Harvard, completed medical school at the University of Chicago, and has over 30 years of experience in radiology. His interest in technology's role in medicine prompted him to start the outpatient practice at a time when CT and MRI technology was rapidly advancing. The company operates approximately 170 imaging centers across 11 states, employing over 200 subspecialty-trained radiologists and serving around two million patients annually. SimonMed's business model is integrated, encompassing both the operation of the imaging centers and the employment of the radiologists who interpret the scans for referring physicians.

The company offers a full range of services, including 3T MRI, CT scans, PET/CT, 3-D mammography, ultrasound, and X-rays. A key part of its strategy is the adoption of advanced technology, such as being one of the first to use 3T MRI and 3D mammography in routine practice and more recently, incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance diagnostic accuracy, particularly in early breast cancer detection and cardiovascular imaging. In April 2021, SimonMed partnered with American Securities, a U.S. private equity firm, to support its continued growth, although financial terms were not disclosed. The company also operates simonONE, a division focused on personalized imaging for early disease diagnosis. A core component of their value proposition is offering these advanced services at affordable prices, aiming to provide better care at a lower cost than hospital-based imaging.
