ATLANTA, April 26,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- West Physics Consulting, LLC
("West Physics"), the leading national provider of integrated
medical and health physics services, announced today that it has
completed the purchase of the medical physics service division of
Tricord, Inc. ("Tricord"), a full-service provider of radiation
safety, health, medical, industrial, and environmental physics
services based in Paducah,
Kentucky.
"We are pleased to announce the acquisition of Tricord's medical
physics business. This acquisition will enable us to expand our
client base and enhance our diagnostic physics testing services for
customers in western Kentucky,
southern Missouri, southern
Illinois, and Tennessee," stated Dr. Geoffrey West, President & Chief Medical
Physicist of West Physics. "We appreciate that Steve Meiners
and the Tricord team have placed their trust in us to continue
their legacy of service and technical expertise. Additionally, we
are grateful that Steve will be staying on with us for some time,
on a part-time consulting basis, to ensure a smooth transition for
his medical clients before turning his focus solely to operating
the industrial health physics portion of Tricord under the Tricord
name."
"While I have greatly enjoyed serving our medical clients over
two decades, now was the right time for me to step back and place
my clients in the care of a firm with the capability to take care
of them for many years to come. West Physics is the most
respected provider of medical physics in the nation and is a
company led by a physicist founder who is truly passionate about
customer service. I am happy that my customers will have a
reputable, reliable, and technically proficient medical physics
partner to continue the work I have been doing for them since 2004.
I am also delighted that my customers will now have access to
even greater organizational resources and staff for their medical
and health physics support," said Mr. Steve
Meiners, President of Tricord, Inc.
