MEDNAX, Inc., (NYSE: MD) today announced the acquisition of Maryland
Perinatal Associates, PC, a group of four maternal-fetal medicine
physicians based in Rockville, Maryland.
“As part of Pediatrix, we anticipate that our practice will benefit
greatly from the administrative resources and clinical support of a
national group network, both of which are very important factors in our
growth given the consistently increasing demand for maternal-fetal
services in our community”
Maryland Perinatal Associates also includes more than 45 clinical and
administrative support staff who work with the physicians providing care
to expectant mothers, including the management of high-risk and
complicated pregnancies, in communities throughout Maryland. Maryland
Perinatal Associates has four offices, and relationships with four area
hospitals in Rockville, Frederick, Silver Springs and Takoma Park,
Maryland.
The group will practice as part of MEDNAX’s Pediatrix Medical Group, a
national group practice that consists of the nation’s leading neonatal,
maternal-fetal medicine and pediatric cardiology physicians, as well as
other pediatric subspecialists. Pediatrix’s national group practice
already includes neonatal and pediatric cardiology physician
subspecialists practicing in Maryland and the northern Virginia area.
