RADIOLOGY SPECIALISTS OF FLORIDA

Early detection is the best defense against today’s most deadly diseases.

Nobody understands this better than the radiologists and specialists at Florida Hospital Waterman and Florida Hospital Waterman Center for Medical Imaging (CMI), which have provided state-of-the-art imaging services for Lake County patients for more than 20 years.

Now, patients at both the hospital and CMI have access to even more consistent, high-quality services to patients thanks to a partnership formed when Medical Imaging Professionals merged with Radiology Specialists of Florida (RSF) in May 2015. RSF features a team of more than 90 board-certified radiologists who have specialized training in body imaging, interventional radiology, neuroradiology, pediatric imaging, women’s imaging, musculoskeletal imaging, and nuclear medicine.

As a result, Florida Hospital Waterman and CMI can offer patients and referring doctors around-the-clock coverage, reduced turnaround times, and increased access to subspecialty radiology services.

“We’ll have an opportunity to work with even more colleagues who have the most recent and up-to-date training,” said Dr. Fred Wittenstein, a radiologist since 1984 who was one of the founding members of Medical Imaging Professionals. “We’ll also be able to provide faster service and turnaround times for the hospital. We’re very excited about our partnership with Radiology Specialists of Florida because they’ve set a high standard of improving quality and efficiency of care in the region. Without question, the partnership will bring an increased level of service and quality of care to the practice, patients, and institutions we serve.”

Florida Hospital Waterman and CMI utilize some of the most advanced diagnostics tools, including PET/CT, MRI, 4D ultrasound, digital x-ray and a DEXA scanner to measure bone density.
