Michael D’Angelo, M.D.
President, Prescott Radiologists
“We have had an on-going relationship with RBS since the inception of our practice. They first came to our hospital as consultants and evolved into organizers for our new group. Once the group was formed, RBS was an invaluable source of knowledge to help with contracts, hospital negotiations, legal services, billing issues, accounting services, and work flow. As the group matured, we were able to scale back services that we could do ourselves, while utilizing their expertise for predicting major trends and changes that they were seeing nationally to keep us ahead of the game. Whenever we called with an issue or question, they responded promptly and honestly. Our group has doubled in size since its inception and the RBS team has been with us every step of the way. It has been a relationship built on mutual respect and succeeds because we share a common goal in this changing environment – the well-being and success of the group. We couldn’t have picked better partners than RBS!”

Chairman, Regional Diagnostic Imaging, LLC

We simply tell them what we need, and a little time later, we get information packets on excellent pre-screened candidates that would be excellent fits for our practice. RBS then coordinates the interview logistics with the applicant and our group to help ensure a successful interview experience for all.”
Jimmie Taylor, M.D.
Radiology Consultants, P.C., Oklahoma City, OK
“My “recruiting” experience was very positive with RBS and Prescott Radiology. Because I interviewed in a busy time of year (around Christmas 2016), the group worked hard to accommodate my schedule. The interview process was very smooth with a printed schedule of interview times, locations, and Radiologists. RBS worked hard to make sure I was in the right location at the right time. From the very beginning, I found RBS and group to be transparent, sharing appropriate information (positives and negatives) and answering all my questions. I received many follow up phone calls from the group president, sharing even more info about the group, hospital, practice environment, and community. Over that past 6 months, it has been a pleasure working with the radiologists. My overall experience has been very positive, and I am very happy working in Prescott.”
Tim Olthoff, D.O.
Prescott Radiology, Prescott, AZ
“I was recruited into my current practice by RBS in 2016. The RBS recruiting process was very thorough and I was provided considerable information about the practice before I interviewed. I was pleased to learn everything they shared with me was true, and I couldn’t be more pleased with my current practice. RBS understands radiology. They know the practices they work with, the radiologists they recruit, and how they can be put together to create a more productive solution for both.”

“RBS was instrumental in the development of our practice. Their ability to objectively assess the situations from all sides allowed them to help create a structure that was built for long term success. RBS had no interest in taking our contract, which provided confidence in their opinions as being truly objective. If you are facing turbulence, a consultation with RBS may prove to be very useful in understanding the big picture and helping craft long term solutions that work for all parties.”
Robin Prasad, M.D.
President (previous), Lexington Radiology
“What makes RBS different is the real fact that they’ve been in the trenches on both sides of the equation. The group is made up of radiologists and former hospital administrators who offer business-minded and partnership-oriented legal expertise. While we didn’t always hear what we wanted to hear from RBS, their ability to see both sides and offer opposing perspectives allowed us all to create a true win-win agreement.”
Rob Cercek
Regional President (previous), Rochester Regional Health System
“RBS was instrumental in developing, organizing and then managing Lexington Radiology from its inception. LRI is a unique practice in which the practice is owned and the physicians employed by the hospital but we operate and practice medicine as if we were a private practice. Our physicians have autonomy where desired and we enjoy a secure and excellent relationship with our hospital and administration.”
