Guidon Partners has made a minority investment alongside Kelso & Company in the acquisition of Physicians Endoscopy.
Founded in 1998, Physicians Endoscopy is a developer, owner and manager of endoscopic surgery centres across the US.
The company has appointed Greg Roth, a founder and partner of Guidon Partners and former CEO of TeamHealth, to its board of directors.
Barry Tanner, CEO of Physicians Endoscopy, says: “I am pleased that Greg has joined our board. He understands our business and has significant experience developing and managing surgery centres with physician partners.”
“I look forward to working with Barry and Kelso & Company, and serving on the board of such a high calibre, industry leading organisation,” says Roth. “Based upon my years spent in the surgery centre industry, I believe surgery centres provide high quality patient care, as well as a tremendous clinical venue for physicians and other healthcare providers.”
Guidon Partners was launched with its founders’ own capital and is unaffiliated with any single investment firm. Every investment comes with the active participation of a Guidon partner and with the involvement of other partners where they can be helpful.
